Colonialism profoundly disturbed the tribal society. Wide-ranging movements occurred against the colonial system which could be seen as part of the larger anti-colonial struggle; a few of them also sought autonomy. As this study shows, with decolonization tribal society has been radically transformed.

The book highlights the various cultural aspects of the Munda, the only known tribe of India, who retain a communal land holding sytem-the Mundari Khuntkatti system, recognised and sanctioned by the State. The author has emphasised that the Inidan tribes cannot be comprehended by the Lingeage Theory, which analyses the function of descent and lineage systems as multifunctional institutions sturcturing the kinship and political organisation of simple societies, as developed by the British functionalists. Indian tribes sicne ancient times have been in contact and even integrated into the larger Hindu Society. Thus they are not purely lineage-based societies. lineage theory has been made dynamic as modified by the author to encompass such a situation.

Anthropological archaeologists have long attempted to develop models that will let them better understand the evolution of human social organization. In our search to understand how chiefdoms and states evolve, and how those societies differ from egalitarian 'bands', we have neglected to develop models that will aid the understanding of the wide range of variability that exists between them. This volume attempts to fill this gap by exploring social organization in tribal - or 'autonomous village' - societies from several different ethnographic, ethnohistoric, and archaeological contexts - from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic Period in the Near East to the contemporary Jivaro of Amazonia.

A Major Hurdle Of Defining A Tribe Is That Related With The Problem Pf Distinguishing The Tribe From Peasantry. Earlier Anthropologists Had Not Paid Sufficient Attention To The Definition Of Tribal Society, But Tacitly Assumed That What They Were Studying In Australia, Melanesia And Africa Were Various Forms Of Tribal Society. Further, Unlike Bailey, The Majority Of Indian Anthropologists Have Not Given Much Serious Thought To The Problem Of Creating A Definition Of Tribal Society Which Will Be Appropriate To The Indian Context.Now Let Us Examine The Problem Specially In The Indian Context. T.B. Naik (1960) Raises The Problem In Proper Perspective By Talking Of The Criteria And Indices Of The Tribal Life In Specifically Indian Setting. What Should Be The Criteria And Indices Of Tribal Life? Living In Forest? Primitive Religion? Geographical Isolation? There Are Hundreds Of Tribal Groups Who Are Not Living An Isolated Life. It Is Hoped That The Book Will Be Of Immernse Importance To Those Dealing With The Subject.
