The Clan Concept of the Tribal Community in Ahmednagar District
Dr. Kakade Lahu Baban
Abstract: Ahmednagar district is the largest in Maharashtra in terms of area. This district has 14 tahsils and these tahsils are inhabited by tribal communities like Mahadev Koli, Thakar, Pardhi, katkari, Gond and Bhil in greater or lesser extent. Indian society is diverse, and not only are people of different races, religions, and cultures living in India, but there are also people speaking different languages and dialects, which shows that there is diversity in the tribal society. When considering the social organizations in tribal society, the importance of the clan has to be mentioned after the family. Although the place of the clan in social life is unique, the clan is an independent social group. The clan is a group based on kinship. In short, the tribal community believes that the clan originated from some animal, bird, or tree.
