Krishnaiah Lecturer, Government Junior College, Alere, Yadadri (Bongir), Telangana 9441184666 [email protected] Abstract: Those vivid eyes gazing and cautious hands moving relentlessly in synchronization on the wheel as a mass of clay gets transformed to a pot and one who sees it happen sings praise for the mesmerizing skills, these people who are known to be potters, possess. Pottery being an age-old prominent handicraft in India, its roots here can be traced back to the earliest times of civilization. It has sustained for eons and is a massive employment creator in both rural and urban areas. The present paper explains the Kummari or Potter community history. Keywords: Kummari history, distribution, caste,and customs. Introduction A man should be known for its work, the virtue and ability one puts in its work but this proclamation doesn’t always hold in some scenarios. In a developing country like ours which has shown unprecedented growth in almost all major sectors, we are still struggling to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor and everyone doesn’t seem to share the piece of cake.One such left out the community in India is that of potters. Pottery is an art of making different objects by carefully molding clay. The sheer hard work they put and the skills through which they design those very pots are magnificent. But their fate seems to be sailing in choppy waters as most of the industries are shut and most of the craftsmen are either unemployed or paid too little. It feels perplexing to see their plight today as they used to be a major revenue generator in the country and as the modernization of the nation began, they started losing their sheen. SPWI Journal For Social Welfare, 1 (2), October – December 2018. ISSN: 2581-6322 72 Pot Makers in India As the modern ways of plastic made crafts forayed into our household people living in urban areas started relying on them and the traditional handicrafts lost their cluster. People don’t recognize the haphazard of these artificial products all they care is about affluence. The government has tried to revive the industry by offering incentives for the handicrafts industries to avert their death and also by conducting fairs and seminars where they can showcase their skilled labour but the scenario doesn’t seem to have improved.It’s appalling to see that they don’t get the same recognition, respect,and remuneration as one should get after putting so much effort into their work. Kumhar or Potter Kumhar is a caste or community in India and Pakistan. Kumhar literally means potter in Indian languages. Depending upon the subgroup or region, in India, they are classified as both OBC and the SC. Etymology The Kumhars derive their name from the Sanskrit word Kumbhakar meaning earthen-pot maker. Dravidian languages conform to the same meaning of the term Kumbhakar. The term Bhande used to designate the Kumhar caste, also means pot. The potters of Amritsar are called Kulal or Kalal, the term used in Yajurveda to denote the pottery class. Mythological Origin A section of Hindu Kumhars honorifically calls themselves Prajapati after Vedic Prajapati, the Lord, who created the universe. According to a legend prevalent among Kumhars Once Brahma divided sugarcane among his sons and each of them ate his share, but the Kumhara who was greatly absorbed in his work forgot to eat. The piece which he had kept near his clay lump struck root and soon grew into a sugarcane plant. A few days later, when Brahma asked his sons for sugarcane, none of them could give it to him, excepting the Kumhara who offered a full plant. Brahma was pleased by the devotion of the potter to his work and awarded him the title Prajapati. There is an opinion that this is because of their traditional creative skills of pottery, they are regarded as Prajapati. Divisions The Potters are classified into Hindu and Muslim cultural groups. Among Hindus, the inclusion of Artisan castes in Shudra Varna is indisputable. The potters belong to SPWI Journal For Social Welfare, 1 (2), October – December 2018. ISSN: 2581-6322 K. Krishnaiah 73 the Shudra group of artisans of Hindu society. They are further divided into two groups- clean caste and unclean caste. Among the Kumhars are groups such as the Gujrati Kumhar, Rana Kumhar, Lad and Telangi. They all, bear these names after different cultural-linguistic zones or caste groups but are termed as one caste cluster. Potters Distribution in India Chamba (Himachal): The Kumhars of Chamba are expert in making pitchers, Surahis, vessels, grain jars, toys for entertainment and earthen lamps. Some of these pots bear paintings and designs also. Gujarat: Kumhars are listed among the Other Backward Classes of Gujarat, where they are listed with the following communities: Prajapati (Gujjar Prajapati, Varia Prajapati, Sorthia Prajapati), Sorathiya Prajapati. Madhya Pradesh: Hathretie and Chakretie (or Challakad) Kumhars are found in Madhya Pradesh. Hathretie Kumhars are called so because they traditionally moved the “chak” (potter’s wheel) by hands (“hath”). Gola is a common surname among Kumhars in Madhya Pradesh. They are categorized as an SC in Chhatarpur, Datia, Panna, Satna, Tikamgarh, Sidhi, and Shahdol districts but elsewhere in the state, they are listed among Other Backward Classes. Maharashtra (Marathe): Kumhars are found in Satara, Sangli, Kolhapur, Sholapur, and Pune. They speak in Marathi among themselves but in Marathi as well as Hindi with outsiders. They use Devanagari script for communication. There are Kumbhars who do not belong to Maratha clan lives in Maharashtra and have the occupation of making idols and pots. They are aware of the Hindu Varna hierarchy and consider themselves to be the Shudra, the lowest rank. Orissa and Bengal: In Bengal Kumhars are one among the ceremonially pure castes. The Jagannatha Kumhars of Orissa, who provide vessels for the rice distribution in Jagannath temple, have a much higher rank in the society than the Kumhars of Central India. Rajasthan: In Rajasthan, Kumhars (Also known as Prajapati) have six sub-groups namely Mathera, Kumavat, Kheteri, Marwara, Timria, andMawalia. In the social hierarchy of Rajasthan, they are placed in the middle of the higher castes and the Harijans. They follow endogamy with clan exogamy. Uttar Pradesh and Bihar: The Kannuaja Kumhars are considered to be a Shudra caste in both Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Although they sometimes use the term Pandit with their names, they do so as a suffix rather than prefixing it in the SPWI Journal For Social Welfare, 1 (2), October – December 2018. ISSN: 2581-6322 74 Pot Makers in India honorific style that is used by Brahmins. The Magahiya Kumhars are treated little inferior to the Kanaujias and the Turkaha (Gadhere) Kumhars rank with untouchables. The Prajapati are among 17 OBC communities that were proposed for Scheduled Caste status by the Samajwadi Party-controlled Government of Uttar Pradesh in 2016. However, this proposal, which relates to voting bank politics, has been stayed by the courts; the prior attempt had been rejected by the Government of India. Kummari in Telangana Kummari caste The Kummari caste (also known as Salivahana) comes under BC category. In Andhra Pradesh, Telangana Salivahana caste is recognized by Government of India and Government of Andhra Pradesh as per GO. Ms.No. 28 BCW (M1) Dept., dated 2 1995. It has been used in many Indian inscriptions and in ancient Sanskrit inscriptions in Indochina and Indonesia. The reformed calendar promulgated by the Indian government from 1957 is reckoned by this era. It is alleged to have been founded by King Kanicka. Salivahana era The Shalivahana era, also known as the Saka era, is used with Hindu calendars, the Indian national calendar, the Balinese calendar, the Javanese calendar, and the Cambodian Buddhist calendar. Its year zero begins near the vernal equinox of the year 78. The Western Kshatrapas (35–405 BC) were Saka rulers of south-western India (Saurashtra, Malwa modern Gujarat, Southern Sindh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, parts of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka). They were successors to the Indo-Scythians who invaded Ujjain and established the Saka era and calendar, marking the beginning of the Saka Western Satraps kingdom.

  • Reconnecting Through Cultural Translations of Time and Motion
    The perception of time has shifted for many people due to COVID-19 pandemic. The concept seems paradoxical where time eludes or stagnates even though it is not a material object that we can physically grasp, and yet, we commonly say Finding Rhythm Amidst Disruption: that ‘time is slipping past our fingers.’ Additionally, this pandemic has brought challenges with an unexpected translation of time: how soon or late our town Reconnecting through Cultural is infected, how many days we haven’t seen a friend, or how many minutes we have “zoom”ed throughout the day. While the context and consequences are Translations of Time and Motion radically different, we refer to this analogy to discuss the diverse translations and cultural shifts of time.

  • Era Abberations by Kalhan in Rajatarangini
    ERA ABBERATIONS BY KALHAN IN RAJATARANGINI Brigadier Rattan Kaul {A gift to my dearest toddler Grandson; TRISHAY} Rajatarangini – Style, Sources and General Contents From an early date ancient historical themes, whether in Bharatvarsha or in Kashmir, were mainly a framework for the display of all subtle poetic art and rhetoric’s, which constituted the characteristic object of ancient Kavya’s {Sanskrit Poetry}. Almost all the historical Kavya’s {Caritas} which have been found deal with the exploits of the poet’s princely patrons or latter’s immediate predecessors, the contents and style depended on courtly patronage. Kalhan’s Rajatarangini, for history of Bharatvarsha in general and of Kashmir in particular, represents a class of Sanskrit composition, Kavya, in form but with a scope and aim widely different from that of the Caritas. It offers a connected narrative of various Kings, dynasties, which ruled or presumed to have ruled Kashmir from the earliest possible period down to his own time. The narrative begins with invoking of Hara {Shiva} in the form of Ardhanarisvara, representing Shiva’s union with Parvati {Verse 1 and 2 Book {Taranga} 1}, legends representing earliest popular traditions, history and beliefs of Aryan Saraswat Brahmins of Kashmir, followed by narrative of later Kings, in chronological order, taken from old records, manuscripts, treatises and details recorded with personal experience as living witnesses of his own time. Many events, details, anecdotes before composition of Rajatarangini would have definitely come from relations, word of mouth and as Kalhan himself accepts from {Translated}; “ Eleven works of former scholars containing the chronicles of Kings, I have inspected, as well as the opinions of the Sage Nila {Verse 14 Taranga 1}”.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT Certain recent studies of South Asian entrepreneurial acti­ vity have suggested that customary social and cultural const­ raints have prevented positive response to economic develop­ ment programmes. Constraints including the conservative mentality of the traditional merchant castes, over-attention to custom, ritual and status and the prevalence of the joint family in management structures have been regarded as the main inhibitors of rational economic behaviour, leading to the conclusion that externally-directed development pro­ grammes cannot be successful without changes in ideology and behaviour. A focus upon the indigenous concepts of the traditional merchant castes of a market town in Rajasthan and their role in organising business behaviour, suggests that the social and cultural factors inhibiting positivejto a presen­ ted economic opportunity, stimulated in part by external, public sector agencies, are conversely responsible for the dynamism of private enterprise which attracted the attention of the concerned authorities.

Generally, historical information is acknowledged as true when it is substantiated by an epigraphical record. In the study of the history of literature and language, epigraphy has a vital role to play. What is an inscription? The word epigraphy is derived from two Greek words viz., ‘epi’ which means ‘ upon’ and ‘graphie’ meaning ‘to write’. Epigraphy may be defined as any descriptive and analytical study of the inscriptions. The word ‘Inscription’ is most commonly used as a synonymous with epigraph. This word has been derived from a Latin word Inscribere, which also gives the meaning ‘to write upon.’ According to Dr. D. C. Sircar, “Inscription literally means only writing engraved on some object.” The Encyclopedia Britanica states that “Inscriptions are the documents, incised on some hard permanent material in the form of letters or other conventional signs, for the purpose of conveying some information or preserving a record. J. F. Fleet has tried to present a summed up description of inscription, like this: “The inscription are notifications, very frequently of an official character and generally more or less of a public nature, which recite facts, simple or complex, with or without dates and were intended to be lasting records of the matters to which they refer.” In India, rocks as well as lithic, metallic, earthen or wooden pillars, tablets, plates and pots and also bricks, sheets, ivory plaques and other objects were generally used for incising inscriptions.

  • Wealth Inequality, Class and Caste in India, 1951-2012 Nitin Kumar Bharti
    Wealth Inequality, Class and Caste in India, 1951-2012 Nitin Kumar Bharti Masters Thesis Report Supervisor: Professor Thomas Piketty (PSE) Referee : Professor Abhijit Banerjee (MIT) June 28, 2018 Abstract This research makes two main contributions. First, I combine data from wealth surveys (NSS-AIDIS) and millionaire lists to produce wealth inequality series for India over the 1961-2012 period. I find a strong rise in wealth concentration in recent decades, in line with recent research using income data. E.g. the top 10% wealth share rose from 45% in year 1981 to 68% in 2012, while the top 1% share rose from 27% to 41%. Next, I gather information from censuses and surveys (NSS AIDIS and consumption, IHDS, NFHS) in order to explore the changing relationship between class and caste in India and the mechanisms behind rising inequality. Assortative mating appears to be very high in India, both at the caste level and at the education level (though not hugely larger than than in Western countries at the education level). I stress the limits of our knowledge and indicate possible lines of future research, particularly regarding the interplay between assortative mating and inequality dynamics.
