[email protected] Linguistic Culture Linguistic Culture • This paper explores details of a particular kind of Gondi Script has been found, it was recognized with the impact of regional local languages. • One such kind of Gondi script of one hundred years antiquity, it still alive in the village ‘Gunjala’, Narne Mandal, Adilabad District in Andhra Pradesh. • Gondwana history and their powerful identity is spread amongst eight States of India-Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chattisghad, Uttarpradesh, Western Orissa and Northern Andhra Pradesh. • Present Central part of India is known as Gondwana Kingdom with strong Gond Culture. The vast kingdom was abundant and full pledged Free State with strong and singular identity. • These simple living Lacs of Gonds are tend to lose touch with their language, spread living in many states of India coming under the influence of the regional languages of those respective states. • Yet, time to time they strive to formulate new script with the help of (previous?) indigenous knowledge. One such effort was made hundred years ago. Gunjala script lies in their manuscripts very intact. It is based on a firm regulated format to create alphabet. • The impact and influence of languages like Marathi, Urdu, Telugu and English as they are languages of medium of instruction in education and further in administration caused a measurable harm to Gondi language. • These recently found manuscripts help us to trace the reminiscent of the script. Manuscripts found at Gunjala Village, Narnoor Mandal, Adilabad District, A.P Manuscripts found at Gunjala Manuscripts found at Gunjala Manuscripts found at Gunjala Manuscripts found at Gunjala Manuscripts found at Gunjala Manuscripts found at Gunjala Horoscope chart in Gunjala Gondi Script. More images on display • Pendur Lingoji and Kumra Gangoji did cherish the desire that their script should appear in print, and sent the Alphabet order, number list, and the readers to Hyderabad. Their efforts were futile; they failed to see their script in print. • The efforts of Prof. Jayadhir Thirmala Rao, who made it possible to bring out the script and readers to Hyderabad and to enable us to listen to the translation of that literature into Telugu. • The each written story is a marvel. Chandrapur, on the boarders of Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra then was a vast kingdom. • Much before the dates of the Indian independent struggle, approximately around 1768 the Gondwana King rebelled against the British. He waged war against them and invited the soldiers from Rohilkhand and Afghanisthan. • The reader of this Saga, Kotnak Jangu, tries to put word by word to explain the meaning in Telugu. This listening experience is worth remembering. It is also to be noticed that reading of Gondi Scripts outside the Gondi Community happened for the first time. • The outsiders of Gondi Society could participate in the rare and unique experience to create a new page in history. • The protests of Gonds make the history to remember about the war of independence. This story as text could reveal and provide more details to the society. • Font development for such script is important to document History, literature, language and culture to pass it on to next generations. • With this motto the font has been designed and the first Reader – ‘Undi Vachakam’ has been designed in Gunjala Gondi script.

Introduction In terms of numerical strength Gonds are a very dominant tribe of central India. Their habitation includes five different states, namely, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Chattisgarh, Odisha and Telangana. The Gond population according 2011 census in these states is as follows: (i) Andhra Pradesh - 1,44,259 (Now Telangana) (ii) Chhatisgarh - 8,06,254; (iii) Madhya Pradesh - 6,75,011; (iv) Maharastra - 4,41,203 and (v) Odisha - 51,948. The total Gond population is 21,24,852. Out of the total population of India 0.25% is the Gond population. 8,99,567 Gonds are bilinguals knowing two languages (42.34%) and 1,34,156 Gonds are trilinguals knowing three languages (6.31%). As they are spread in a vast area, they have heterogeneously stratified society. They exhibit a cultural variation which is from most primitive to the advanced states. The northern region of Gond habitat shows varying degrees of acculturation whereas the southern region is comparatively less exposed to the external influences. The Gond society consists elements of both the southern and northern social system including kinship norms.

  • I:\Eastern Anthropologist\No 2
    Malli Gandhi ENDANGERMENT OF LANGUAGE AMONG THE YERUKULA: A NOMADIC / DENOTIFIED TRIBE OF ANDHRA PRADESH The scheduled tribes, nomadic and denotified tribes constitute a major segment of population in Andhra Pradesh. They live in remote areas of the state and need special focus to solve their problems. Jatapu, Konda Dora, Muka Dora, Manne Dora, Savara, Gadaba, Chenchu, Koya, Gondi are some of the major primitive tribal groups of Andhra Pradesh. In addition there are Dasari, Yerukula, Yanadi, Sugali, Korawa, Koracha, Kaidai and Nakkala as some of the denotified tribes in Andhra Pradesh. Further, Woddera, Pamula, Nirshikari, Budabukkala, Mandula, Pusala, Gangi, Reddula, Boya, Dommara, Jogi are some of the nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes. Andhra Pradesh has 52 lakhs scheduled tribe population (2001 census). The largest tribal population is found in Khammam district (26.47% that is 682617 – 6.8 lakhs), followed by Visakapatnam district (5.58 lakhs). The tribal population of Andhra Pradesh increased from 7.67 to 52 lakhs in 50 years between 1951 and 2001. The substantial population increase between 1971 and 2001 was because of the recognition of the Sugali, Yerukula, Yanadi, Nakkala and other denotified, nomadic tribes as scheduled tribes in the entire state. The tribal communities in the state of Andhra Pradesh mostly exhibited Proto-Austroloid features. Chenchus and Yanadis exhibit some Negrito strain whereas the Khond and Savara have Mongoloid features. The tribal communities in Andhra Pradesh mainly belong to three linguistic families such as: Dravidian language family (Gondi, Koya, Kolami, Yerukula, and so on); Mundari language family (Savra, Godaba, and so on); Indo-Aryan language family (Banjara, and others).

  • Learnings from Technological Interventions in a Low Resource Language: a Case-Study on Gondi
    Learnings from Technological Interventions in a Low Resource Language: A Case-Study on Gondi Devansh Mehta 1∗, Sebastin Santy2∗, Ramaravind K. Mothilal2, Brij M.L. Srivastava3, Alok Sharma4, Anurag Shukla5, Vishnu Prasad1, Venkanna U.5, Amit Sharma2, Kalika Bali2 1Voicedeck Technologies, 2Microsoft Research India, 3INRIA France, 4DN Developers, 5IIIT Raipur Abstract The primary obstacle to developing technologies for low-resource languages is the lack of usable data. In this paper, we report the adoption and deployment of 4 technology-driven methods of data collection for Gondi, a low-resource vulnerable language spoken by around 2.3 million tribal people in south and central India. In the process of data collection, we also help in its revival by expanding access to information in Gondi through the creation of linguistic resources that can be used by the community, such as a dictionary, children’s stories, an app with Gondi content from multiple sources and an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) based mass awareness platform. At the end of these interventions, we collected a little less than 12,000 translated words and/or sentences and identified more than 650 community members whose help can be solicited for future translation efforts. The larger goal of the project is collecting enough data in Gondi to build and deploy viable language technologies like machine translation and speech to text systems that can help take the language onto the internet. Keywords: Low-Resource Languages, Deployment, Applications 1. Introduction Around 40% of all the languages in the world face the dan- ger of extinction in the near future. Languages are not only a means of communication but also a carrier of tradition and cultures like verbal art, songs, narratives, rituals etc.

Raja Reddi and Urmila Pingle in memory of our journeys in tribal country Preface ― xi ― This book tells of observations among Indian tribal populations spanning the period from 1940 to 1980. Ever since 1936, when a study of the Konyak Nagas marked the beginning of my career as an anthropological field-worker, I have maintained contacts with Indian tribesmen. True, there were years when I concentrated on the study of the mountain peoples of Nepal, but even then I paid periodic visits to some of the tribal areas of India, and this enabled me to keep abreast of current developments. When in 1976 I retired from the Chair of Asian Anthropology at the University of London and could devote more time to fieldwork, I decided to undertake a systematic investigation of social and economic changes affecting the tribal societies which I had studied in the 1940s. A grant from the Social Science Research Council of Great Britain, as well as subsidiary awards from the Leverhulme Trust Fund and the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research, provided the material basis for this project, which included also the funding of parallel research by my young colleague Dr.

    ELLORA: Enabling Low Resource Languages with Technology Kalika Bali, Monojit Choudhury, Sunayana Sitaram, Vivek Seshadri Microsoft Research Labs Bangalore, India {kalikab, monojitc, susitara, visesha}@microsoft.com Abstract Language technology has had a huge impact on the way language communities communicate and access information. However, this revolution has bypassed over 5000 languages around the world that have no resources to develop technology in their languages. ELLORA, with its mission to empower every person and every organization using underserved languages to achieve more, is a program for enabling low resource languages through language technology. In this paper we describe how through innovative methodologies and techniques that allow systems to be built in resource constrained settings, ELLORA seeks to positively impact the underserved language communities around the globe..

  • Aspects of Gond Astronomy1
    Aspects of Gond Astronomy1 M N Vahia1 and Ganesh Halkare2 1Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai 400 005 2Indrayani Colony, Amravati, 444 607 Summary: The Gond community is considered to be one of the most ancient tribes of India with a continuing history of several thousand years. They are also known for their largely isolated history which they have retained through the millennia. Several of their intellectual traditions therefore are a record of parallel aspects of human intellectual growth. It still preserves its original flavour and is not homogenised by later traditions of India. In view of this, they provide a separate window to the different currents that constitute contemporary India. In the present study, we summarise their mythology, genetics and script. We then investigate their astronomical traditions and try to understand this community through a survey of about 15 Gond villages spread over Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. We show that they have a distinctly different view of the skies from the conventional astronomical ideas which is both interesting and informative. We briefly comment on other aspects of their life as culled from our encounters with the members of the Gond community Introduction: Gonds are the largest of Indian tribes with a net population between 4 and 5 million spread over north Andhra Pradesh, eastern Maharashtra, eastern Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and western Orissa (Deogaonkar, 2007 p 14-17). While their precise history cannot be dated before 890 AD (Deogaonkar, 2007, p 37), their roots are certainly older. Origin of the Gonds Mehta (1984) has studied the Gonds from different perspectives and also their history and mythology in detail (Mehta, 1984, p 105 – 166).

Marcel Schneider ([email protected]) Above all we should always —which is most difficult— see what we see.
