Agraharams The Origin And Evolution Of A Unique Housing Pattern In KeralaErica Thompson
This document discusses the unique housing pattern known as agraharams found in Kerala, India. It traces the origin of agraharams to the 15th-16th century migration of Brahmin communities from northern India to Kerala. The agraharams followed a linear or concentric settlement pattern organized around a central temple. In contrast to traditional Kerala homes which were courtyard houses, agraharams had rows of houses on either side of a street, with a temple at the center. Key features of agraharams included a long shared verandah, and internal spaces dedicated to religious and community functions. The document compares the architectural styles and layouts of agraharams and traditional Kerala homes.
Historically, the region is Dandakaranya in the epic Ramayana and is a part of the Kosala kingdom in Mahabharata.
Bastar’s princely state was established around 1324 AD, when Anaam Dev, brother of the last Kakatiya king, Pratap Rudra Dev (1290-1325) left Warangal and established his royal empire in Bastar.
Indian culture had a significant influence on Southeast Asia between 200 BC and the 15th century. Indian traders, missionaries, and monks spread Hinduism and Buddhism through peaceful means rather than military conquest. They introduced Indian aspects like architecture, religion, art, culture, society, literature, maritime activities, trade, cuisine, and language. Key examples include Angkor Wat in Cambodia, which shows Dravidian architectural influences, and Prambanan temple in Java, which blended Buddhism and Dravidian styles. Indian missionaries and their role in spreading culture through ashrams and hermitages were also important to cultural exchange. Overall, Indian cultural dominance was established through maritime activities, trade routes, and powerful kingdoms with Indian names and heritage

India has over 1.2 billion people from many ethnic groups including Dravidians and Aryans. The Hindu caste system determines social status and occupation, with Brahmins as priests and Untouchables performing menial jobs. India's population density is very high due to the large population and geography. Major cities include Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi. India's ancient Indus Valley civilization influenced modern Hinduism and the caste system remains influential today, though now illegal. Significant empires like the Maurya and Gupta expanded India but were later invaded by Muslims, affecting religious demographics.
- Adivasis are indigenous tribal groups that are considered the original inhabitants of India. They make up around 8% of India's population and are concentrated in central and northeastern states.
- Officially, adivasis are recognized as Scheduled Tribes under the Indian constitution, which provides some affirmative action protections. However, adivasis faced disruption of their autonomy and discrimination during British colonial and post-Independence periods.
- There is no consensus on which groups should be considered truly aboriginal, as the peopling of India involved multiple ancient human migrations. While some adivasis retain elements of original cultures and languages, affiliations are complex with influences from other language families over time.

1. During the Vedic Age of Indian civilization, it is believed that after the collapse of the Indus Valley civilization some of the kinship groups and patriarchal families migrated into India. As some within the Aryas tribe (light-skinned) entered into the Ganges Valley, they encountered a struggle with the Dasas tribe (dark-skinned) but managed to force the tribe into southern India. The struggle between the tribes led to the development of the Varna class system. Under this system, people were born into one of the four Varna's: Brahmin was the class of priests and scholars; Kshatriya was warriors; Vaishya was merchants; and Shundra was peasants and laborers. The fifth group was the Untouchables; they were outside the system because of the nature of their work. The work was considered polluted as it dealt with dead things and cremations. Now, the Varna was divided into groups and subdivided into jati's: order of hierarchy. Under the hierarchy, were complex rules that governed the different occupations, duties, and rituals of each Jati as a well as regulations concerning interaction between people of different Jati. The system served to assign occupations to the Varna and Jati in which each individual belongs; and the system separated the members of the different Varna and Jati into a system of purity and impurity. Purity restrictions occurred in the areas of marriage, drink, food and touch. The system of Varna and Jati lasted because many of the practices and attitudes were indoctrinated into the Hindu people, rules for social behavior, and the philosophy of reincarnation. The belief was every individual has an immortal spirit that will be reborn in another body after death and that body will be determined by karma in this and the previous life. The people believed that rebellion against caste expectations would result in a lower rebirth in the next life. The United States is a nation of diverse cultures. People are classified as rich, middle class, or poor. The rich are considered well educated and highly paid professionals; the middle class are semi-professional and educated working middle class; and the poor are the working under class with very little to no education. Income is the most prominent indicator of class status, and education to occupation and income. 2.Yes, both routes originated for the purpose of trading. Both routes have harsh desert conditions.

Medicinal Plants Used By Tribal Communities: A Study of Uttarakhand Himalayan...inventionjournals
ABSTRACT : The present paper is a study of the traditional medical practices by the tribes of Uttarakhand Region. Forest and forest products have historically played a significant role in the economy as well as culture and religious in this region since ancient time. Forest has played an important part in history of civilization. They have affected the distribution of mankind over the earth surface and have influenced the religious life of primitive people. In India, the Indigenous people are predominantly composed of the large and diverse tribal population scattered across several states. In Indian language, there is no exact equivalent for “Tribe”, but close synonyms are “Vanavasi (forest dwellers)” or “Adivasi”. Tribal people and medical practices are co-related with forest ecology. Tribal communities in this region like Bhotias, Rajees, Tharu, Boxas, and Jaunsarees are distinct in cultures, traditions, languages and customs but have an intimate attachment with forest for their basic needs such as food, fruits, edible roots, leaves, medicinally important plants etc. Their primary health care system is depending on traditional knowledge of medical practices and medicinal herbs. The research and utilization of the traditional medicinal system has become an essential part of the contemporary health care planning, report of world health organization 1978.Therefore the objective is to analyze the paper in two sections. Firstly, the importance of medicinal plants and secondarily, medicinal plants used by tribal communities in this Himalayan region.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

The Patni surname is believed to have been derived from the Sanskrit word ‘pat’, meaning ‘lord’ or
‘master’. The name is a reminder of the family’s domination over its territories and has been used by
many generations of warriors in the region. The Patnis were also known for their valour and courage,
and were especially known for their successful campaigns against the Mughals.
The Patnis were among the first to settle in Uttarakhand, when the state was still known as Kumaon.
Over time, the community has spread to neighbouring regions such as Garhwal and Himachal Pradesh.
The Patnis are today found in all major cities and towns of Uttarakhand and have integrated
themselves well into local culture and traditions.
The Patni surname is usually associated with the Hindu religion, although many members of the
community have embraced other faiths over time. In Uttarakhand, members of the Patni caste are
primarily engaged in agricultural activities. They are also involved in small-scale businesses such as
trading and shopkeeping.
The Patni surname is also associated with some prominent personalities in Uttarakhand. One such
person is Manmohan Singh Patni, who served as the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand from 2002 to 2007.
He was later appointed as a minister in the Union Council of Ministers in 2004, and served till 2014.
Another famous personality associated with the Patni surname is Dr Harish Dutt Patni, who was
appointed as the Governor of Uttarakhand in 2019.
The Patni surname is also widely found among the Kashmiri Pandit community in India, who trace
their origins back to Kashmir. The Kashmiri Pandits are believed to be descendants of the ancient
Suryavanshi Rajputs, who ruled over Kashmir during medieval times. The Kashmiri Pandits share a
strong cultural bond with their counterparts from Uttarakhand, as both communities speak similar
dialects of Hindi and are known for their traditional attire and customs.
In modern times, members of the Patni caste are engaged in various professions across India and
abroad. While some are involved in business activities, others are employed in government jobs or are
pursuing higher studies abroad. Despite centuries of change and progress, members of this caste have
held on to their strong social values and traditions, which have enabled them to remain an important
part of Indian society.
2. The Patni surname is an integral part of Uttarakhand’s culture and heritage and has been around for
centuries. It is a reminder of a proud past that still influences its people today – a reminder that
people don’t just come from one place but from all walks of life.

Introduction:
Uttarakhand, a region nestled in the lap of the Himalayas, boasts a rich history that spans millennia.
Among the many dynasties that have left their mark on this land, the Patni and Chand dynasties hold a
special place. Their unique relationship, characterized by both collaboration and conflict, has played a
significant role in shaping the history and culture of Uttarakhand.
6. Origins of the Patni Dynasty:
The Patni Dynasty, believed to have originated in the 7th
century, was primarily centered around the
area that is now known as Almora district. The dynasty’s name “Patni” is derived from the word
“Patan,” which means a place of trade and commerce. They were known for their administrative
prowess and their patronage of art and culture.
Rise of the Chand Dynasty:
The Chand Dynasty, on the other hand, rose to prominence in the 10th
century. They established their
capital at Kumaon’s heart, Champawat. The Chands were martial rulers known for their valor and
military conquests. They expanded their kingdom to encompass vast territories in Kumaon and
Garhwal.
The Chand-Patni Relationship:
The relationship between the Patni and Chand dynasties was marked by both cooperation and rivalry.
At times, they forged alliances through strategic marriages, while at other times, they engaged in
territorial conflicts.
1. Marital Alliances:
One of the most notable instances of cooperation between the two dynasties was through marriage
alliances. Raja Som Chand of the Chand Dynasty married a Patni princess, cementing a strong bond
between the two families. This union contributed to the peaceful coexistence of the Chands and Patnis
for several generations.
2. Territorial Conflicts:
However, the history of Uttarakhand is also replete with instances of territorial conflicts between the
Patni and Chand rulers. Both dynasties sought to expand their domains, leading to clashes over border
regions. These conflicts often resulted in power shifts and changes in territorial boundaries.
Cultural Legacy:
Despite their conflicts, both dynasties left a lasting cultural legacy in Uttarakhand. The Chands
promoted martial arts, while the Patnis were patrons of literature and the arts. This blend of cultural
influences enriched the region’s heritage, leaving behind a vibrant tapestry of traditions.
7. End of an Era:
The heyday of the Chand and Patni dynasties began to wane with the arrival of the Gorkhas in the 18th
century. The Gorkha invasion disrupted the power structures of Uttarakhand, and both dynasties
struggled to maintain their hold over the region.
Conclusion:
The intricate relationship between the Patni and Chand dynasties in Uttarakhand is a testament to the
complex history of this region. While they experienced periods of cooperation and conflict, their
legacies endure in the culture and heritage of Uttarakhand. Today, Uttarakhand proudly carries
forward the cultural and historical contributions of these two dynasties, reminding us of their
enduring impact on this Himalayan paradise.

Introduction:
Uttarakhand, the picturesque northern state of India, is known for its serene landscapes and spiritual
significance. However, beneath its serene beauty lies a rich history of valor and resistance. Among the
many tales of bravery, one stands out prominently – the Patni warriors who fiercely fought against the
Mughal forces in the heart of the Himalayas.
The Setting:
During the Mughal era in India, the northern territories of the subcontinent were seen as prized
possessions. The lush valleys, strategic locations, and abundant resources made this region an
attractive target for the Mughal emperors. Uttarakhand, with its mountainous terrain, was a
particularly challenging region to conquer.
The Patni Community:
The Patnis, primarily residing in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, were a community of skilled
fighters and proud defenders of their homeland. Known for their deep reverence for nature and the
mountains that surrounded them, they had a strong bond with their homeland, making them
formidable protectors.
8. The Conflict:
The Mughal emperor Akbar, known for his expansionist policies, set his sights on Uttarakhand. The
conquest was not without opposition, as the Patni warriors, led by their chieftains, vehemently
resisted the invading Mughal forces.
The Guerilla Warfare:
The Patni warriors employed guerrilla warfare tactics, using their knowledge of the terrain to their
advantage. They employed hit-and-run tactics, making it difficult for the Mughals to capture and hold
their territory. The dense forests and rugged terrain provided ample opportunities for ambushes,
enabling the Patnis to inflict heavy casualties on the invaders.
The Fort of Dunagiri:
One of the most iconic battles between the Patnis and the Mughals occurred at the Fort of Dunagiri,
perched high in the Himalayan mountains. The fort, with its strategic location, served as a symbol of
Patni resistance. The Mughals, under the command of Akbar’s generals, laid siege to the fort for
months.
The Heroic Stand:
The Patni warriors defended Dunagiri with unwavering determination. Women, children, and the
elderly joined the battle, demonstrating the unity and commitment of the community. Despite facing
severe hardships and a relentless Mughal onslaught, they refused to surrender.
Legacy:
While the Patnis ultimately faced defeat due to the overwhelming might of the Mughal forces, their
legacy lives on. The courage and resilience they displayed in the face of adversity are celebrated to this
day. Their heroic struggle against the Mughals is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the people of
Uttarakhand.
9. Conclusion:
The story of the Patni warriors’ resistance against the Mughals in Uttarakhand is a powerful testament
to the deep-rooted connection between a community and its homeland. Their bravery and
unwavering commitment to protecting their land and way of life continue to inspire generations,
reminding us of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The Patni warriors’ legacy
lives on as a source of pride for the people of Uttarakhand, and their story should be preserved and
celebrated as an integral part of India’s rich historical tapestry.
