This paper also highlights the tribal movements against the unequal development and mismatch of Government policies and its poor implementations. It is true that when the Jharkhand Movement gaining ground these non-tribal groups too became part of the struggle. Thus, Jharkhandi came to be known as „the land of the destitute” comprising of all the deprived sections of Jharkhand society. Hence, development of Jharkhand means the development of the destitute of this region. In reality Jharkhand state is in the grip of the problems of low income, poor health and industrial growth. No qualitative change has been found in the condition of tribal people as the newly born state containing the Bihar legacy of its non-performance on the development front.

  • Patna University, Patna Paper – CC-XI, Sem
    Chirand Chalcolithic Culture Dr. Dilip Kumar Assistant Professor (Guest) Dept. of Ancient Indian History & Archaeology, Patna University, Patna Paper – CC-XI, Sem. – III With the end of the Neolithic Age, several cultures started using metal, mostly copper and low grade bronze. The culture based on the use of copper and stone was termed as Chalcolithic meaning stone-copper Phase. In India, it spanned around 2000 BC to 700 BC. This culture was mainly seen in Pre-Harappan phase, but at many places it extended to Post-Harappan phase too. The people were mostly rural and lived near hills and rivers. The Chalcolithic culture corresponds to the farming communities, namely Kayatha, Ahar or Banas, Malwa, and Jorwe. The term Chalcolithic is a combination of two words- Chalco+Lithic was derived from the Greek words "khalkos" + "líthos" which means "copper" and "stone" or Copper Age. It is also known as the Eneolithic (from Latin aeneus "of copper") is an archaeological period that is usually considered to be part of the broader Neolithic (although it was originally defined as a transition between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age). Chirand is an archaeological site in the Saran district of Bihar, situated on the northern bank of the Ganga River. It has a large pre-historic mound, known for its continuous archaeological record from the Neolithic age to the reign of the Pal dynasty who ruled during the pre-medieval period; the excavations in Chirand have revealed stratified Neolithic and Iron Age settlements, transitions in human habitation patterns dating from 2500 BC to 30 AD.

    1 UNIT 3 RESISTANCE AND REVOLUTIONS AGAINST FOREIGN POWERS Contents 3.0 Objectives 3.1 Introduction 3.2 Pacification of the Paharias 3.3 Santal Revolt (1781-84) 3.4 Kol Insurrection 3.5 British Rule (1834 Onwards) and Tribals 3.6 Tribal Movements 3.7 Let Us Sum Up 3.8 Further Readings and References 3.0 OBEJCTIVES The unit tries to capture the historical account of tribal resistance and revolutions against the non-tribal foreign powers. The case of tribals of Chotanagpur and Santals are taken as a concrete expressions of such resistance and revolutions against such powers. It would be applied to other tribals in their own concrete specific situations. 3.1 INTRODUCTION The tribals of Chotanagpur and Santal Pargana in Jharkhand today have a long history of resistance and revolt against the British administration and its non-tribal collaborators, such as, jagirdars (service tenure holders), thikadars (permanent or temporary land lease holders), zamindars (persons recognized as possessing proprietary rights over land under the British Law), etc. This history of pre-Independence India (1947) is well documented and probably represents by far the best tribal resistance and revolutions against foreign powers that have taken place in different parts of the country in the past. Although Chotanagpur was ceded to the British East India Company (EIC) in 1765, the first entry of the British rulers into this region took place in 1772 when Dripnath Shahi was the ruler of the region. He was in the subordinate position under the EIC and consequently handed over the region into its hands in the same year.

    1 UNIT 3 TRIBAL RELIGION/S VIS-À-VIS IMPACT OF OTHER RELIGIONS Contents 3.0 Objectives 3.1 Introduction 3.2 Contact with other Religions 3.3 Bhagat Movements among the Uraons 3.4 The Kherwar (Kharwar) Movement 3.5 Christian Movements 3.6 Birsa Movement 3.7 Tana Bhagat Movement 3.8 The Haribaba Movement in Singhbhum 3.9 Let us Sum up 3.10 Key Words 3.11 Further Readings and References 3.0 OBJECTIVES The unit aims at giving the account of tribal religions and their encounter with foreign religions. The relationship is very well known from the different tribal movements that have characterized themselves as defenders of tribal religions or as speaking for the adaptability and accommodation. 3.1 INTRODUCTION Religious leaders, who have been acknowledged as genuine prophets in the Judaeo-Christian traditions, have always claimed to speak in the name of God. They were His spokesmen, and their vocation has an origin from a call of God Himself rather than from their fancy or choice. Through several difficult, critical periods of Jewish history, the prophets claimed to be the authentic interpreters of the voice of God, the revealers of His plan, and the guardians and guarantors of the divine promise to God’s chosen People. In the present study too the religious leaders initiating them have claimed to be inspired either by God or some other supernatural power. The messages they communicated to their followers, they maintained, were from God or spirits, and that they were merely their mouthpieces. Hence, we may be permitted to call these leaders ‘prophets’.
