An Unknown People is a book written by Edward Carpenter. It is a historical and anthropological study of the tribal people of India, particularly those who lived in the region of Central India. Carpenter explores the customs, beliefs, and practices of these people, who were largely unknown to the outside world at the time the book was written. He draws on his own experiences and observations, as well as the work of other scholars and travelers, to provide a comprehensive and insightful look at these fascinating cultures. The book is divided into chapters that focus on different aspects of tribal life, such as religion, social organization, and economic practices. Throughout, Carpenter emphasizes the importance of understanding and respecting these people and their way of life, rather than simply viewing them as primitive or inferior. An Unknown People is a valuable resource for anyone interested in anthropology, South Asian history, or the diversity of human cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
