They have kng history since ancient times. The earliest mention of their name occurs in the Ramayana and the Maha­ bharata. Bhils possibly belong 10 a proto­ Mediterranean race who spread far and wide when a climatic crisis occurred in the gral>s steppes 0 f the Sahara. And, even now they are mostly, dependent on agriculture and specially agriculture labour. Modernisation of life style of such tribal groups. while preserving the good aspects of the age-old culture, is one of the object of the planning schemes. s Y) 645 CENSUS OF INDIA 1981 SERIES 12-MAHARASHTRA DHULE DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK ERRATA Page Item Col.
