The Bhil tribes have two sub-divisions namely central Bhils, and the eastern or part Rajput Bhils. In their society, marriage within the same clan is prohibited. Marriage within first cousins is also not allowed. Widow-remarriage is allowed in their society.
Culture of Bhil Tribe
The Bhil people have a rich indigenous culture. Ghoomar dance is one of the popular dance of Bhil culture. They celebrate their festivals in respect of their ancestors.
One of the most famous festival of the Bhils is the Gavri. Gavri is enjoyed by the participants and audience alike. As this festival restricts the female participation in the dramas and programmes enacted in the festival, so the part of the females is played by the men. The performers are dressed in colourful and showy costumes. Moreover, a series of acts based on the Hindu epics, tales of the heroes and villains of Hindu scriptures are played in Gavri.
Than Gair is the religious dance drama performed by the men in the month of Sharavana (July and August).
