The Meghwar, one of the major groups of South Asia, mostly concentrated
in the Northwest India and the two provinces of Pakistan, Sindh and the
Southern Punjab. This book unfolds origin and the historical background of the
Meghwar and evolution as a community under the syncretic religious movement
during the medieval period of the Indian history, say, from 12th century AD
down to the 19th century. The book is divided into seven chapters covering
other topics: social structure of the community; cultural and religious legacy;
the role of written and oral literature in the social domain and ritual
performance of sacred spaces; inherited by fabulous traditions and customs, the
intricate art and craft of textile embroidery and leather work peculiarly
distinguish Meghwar idiosyncratic lifestyle in endurance and bizarre environments.
Meghwar History and Culture is essential reading for equally scholars and
laymen with an interest in South Asian history, culture, and literary tradition
among the indigenous communities like Meghwar.
