On the issue of relationship between the tribal people and non-tribal people or caste-Hindus in India, we find two different views. One is that, many social and cultural traditions of the Hindu Great Tradition have organic links with the tribal society and culture. On the other hand some maintain that, the tribal and the Hindu traditions are separate; tribal people do not have more than casual contacts with the caste-Hindus. Papers in this volume reveal the fact that, caste-Hindus have been substantially influenced by the tribal people in India throughout the history. Also, attempts have been made in this volume to study myths associated in different walks of life and how history is carefully blended with the tradition to construct the picture of the past.
