This book covers the ethnobiology and traditional ecological
knowledge (TEK) of the Solega people of southern India. Solega TEK
is shown to be a complex, inter-related network of detailed
observations of natural phenomena, well-reasoned and often highly
accurate theorizing, as well as a belief system, derived from
cultural norms, regarding the relationships between humans and
other species on the one hand, and between non-human species on the
other. As language-based studies are strongly biased toward
investigations of ethno-taxonomy and nomenclature, the importance
of studying TEK in its proper context is discussed as making
context and encyclopedic knowledge the objects of study are
essential for a proper understanding of TEK.
