Few thorough ethnographic studies on Central Indian tribal
communities exist, and the elaborate discussion on the cultural
meanings of Indian food systems ignores these societies altogether.
Food epitomizes the social for the Gadaba of Odisha. Feeding,
sharing, and devouring refer to locally distinguished ritual
domains, to different types of social relationships and alimentary
ritual processes. In investigating the complex paths of ritual
practices, this study aims to understand the interrelated fields of
cosmology, social order, and economy of an Indian highland
community.
