Common Territory
A tribe is a territorial community. It means that the tribe has a definite
territory in which its members reside. For Example, the Naga, Rengma Naga,
Sema Naga and other tribals reside in Nagaland; Garos, Khasis, Khasas
live in Assam; Bhils in Madhya Preadesh; Soligas in Mysore; Thodasln in
Niligiri Hills of Tamil Nadu, and so on. In the absence of a common locality or
territory a tribe would lose its uniqueness.
Collection of Families
As the definitions oftribe cited above clarify, tribals constitute a collection
of families. These collections may have various sizes. These families which
normally have blood relationships among themselves could be matriarchal
or patriarchal in nature.
Common Name
Every tribe has its own name. Each tribe is known to other tribes by its
distinctive name. Example of some Indian tribes: Garo, Khasi, Khasa, Naga,
Rengma Naga, Sema Naga, Limbu, Santhal, MUnda, Gond, Kota, Badaga,
Urali, Thodas, etc.
Common Language
The members of a tribe speak a particular language. Different tribes
speak different languages. These languages are not only different from the
language of the civilised people, but they themselves differ from one another. Common language contributes much to the development of community
feeling. Since these languages do not have a script of their own, education
of the tribals has become problematic.
Common Ancestor
The tribals claim that they have a common ancestor. A major cause of the sense of communal unity in the tribe is “the tie of blood relationship” between its members arising out of common ancestry. The tribals are bound by kinship bonds.
