Answer» Answer: The Gonds were mostly a race of hunter-gatherers who practiced rudimentary agriculture and pastoral activity. CLEARING up of FORESTS can be EXPECTED to have IMMEDIATELY impacted their forest-dwelling lifestyle. Originally Santals were hunter-gatherers and known for clearing forests for agriculture. Presently they are mostly farmers. For CENTURIES, Santals have been living as neighbors of other communities maintaining a cultural and social distance. The Santals are regarded as one of the economically poor communities of India. |
