Bách khoa toàn thư nền nông nghiệp thế giới - Vùng Nam Á - Phần Appendix | Appendix 309 Appendix Additional Castes Caste Clusters and Tribes The following caste and tribe names have been taken from the various sets of handbooks dealing with the castes and tribes of particular regions of South Asia. These volumes are nearly all more than a half-century old but more recent information of this sort is not available. Virtually all of the Castes and Tribes handbooks have however been republished in recent years. Long as this list is it is by no means exhaustive and it merely represents those groups for which we have a certain amount of once reliable if now outdated information. Only monographs have been surveyed for this appendix as space does not allow coverage of the massive amount of ethnographic material to be found in scholarly journals. For these the interested reader should consult the excellent bibliographies by Ittaman et al. 1982 and Patterson 1981 . Most of these groups are internally divided into subcastes or tribal sections that have not been named in this appendix which is essentially an index to the handbooks mentioned. It must be recognized that in many cases one named caste is actually a grouping of several endogamous units and further that changing economic conditions have made the traditional occupations listed here unimportant or even impossible to follow. In some cases too the locality where a caste is to be found has changed somewhat particularly as a result of the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. Modem district names are given in all entries. Cross-references set in upper- and lower-case characters are to other headings in this appendix those set in capitals and small capitals are to headings in the main body of the encyclopedia. An index of all ethnonyms given in this appendix is provided at the back. Adi A Paleo-Mongoloid tribal cluster found in central Arunachal Pradesh.
