Introduction:

Heritage is a fundamental source of individual and group identity, vitality, and solidarity.

Traditional languages were disappearing, and ancestral forms of conflict resolution within communities were disintegrating. Also, during this time, the federal government became aware of the difficulty tribal communities were having in retaining cohesion. Tribal governments as well as the federal government began investigating ways to halt degradation of traditional .

India has been a subject of intense interest to a wide variety of peoples from all corners of the ancient and the modern world throughout the millennia.
