Children of the Earth Goddess
Society, Marriage and Sacrifice in the Highlands of Odisha
von Roland HardenbergThe world is changing with incredible speed towards something radically new, yet people across the globe also show resistance to the forces that homogenize our lives. This book deals with the Dongria Kond, who have found their niche in the Niamgiri mountain range of Odisha (India) and are struggling to preserve their way of life. The reader is confronted with imaginings of familiar human concerns: love, fertility, wealth, status and well-being.
