Description
The third volume in the series on Daman, Diu, and Dadra & Nagar Haveli describes the intangible culture of the Union Territory of Daman, which lies on the Gujarat coast just south of Valsad, and was once known as Kalana Parvi or Lotus of the Marshlands. The culture of various communities like the Tandel, a fishing community, Patels, Christians, Parsis, and Halpatis, and the presence of an Indo-Portuguese cultural fusion still seen in parts of the region, is described in this publication.
