Answer» Khonds (also spelt Kondha, KANDHA etc.) are a tribal COMMUNITY in India. Traditionally hunter-gatherers, they are DIVIDED into the hill-dwelling Khonds and plain-dwelling Khonds for census purposes; all the Khonds identify by their clan and usually hold large tracts of fertile LAND but still practice hunting, gathering and slash-and-burn agriculture in the forests as a symbol of their CONNECTION to and ownership of the forest. Khonds speak the Kui and Kuvi languages and write them in Odia script. |
