The first part focuses on the Todas and Kotas, two indigenous tribes living in the Nilgiri Hills of southern India. Thurston provides a comprehensive account of their customs, beliefs, social structure, and religious practices. He also discusses their physical appearance, language, and material culture.The second part of the book is devoted to the Brahmins, Kammalans, Pallis, and Pariahs, four communities living in Madras City (now Chennai). Thurston examines the social, economic, and religious aspects of these communities, as well as their history and traditions.Throughout the book, Thurston uses a combination of anthropological fieldwork and historical research to provide a nuanced understanding of the cultures and societies he is studying. He also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to provide visual context for his descriptions.Overall, ''Anthropology Of The Todas And Kotas Of The Nilgiri Hills: And Of The Brahmans, Kammalans, Pallis, And Pariahs Of Madras City'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the anthropology and history of southern India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
