Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dravidian Gods in Modern Hinduism, Vol. 15: A Study of the Local and Village Deities of Southern India The reasons for this apparent neglect are not difficult to discover. There is no systematized teaching connected with village cults or worship. No interesting systems of philosophy lie behind them. The Dravidians are not a literary people, and their religion has no literature. There are no Vedas or other writings telling of their gods. Their history is contained in the somewhat confused legends recited by wandering Singers who attend the festivals and assist in the worship. These legends and stories are always recited from memory; and as usually the singers cannot read, written stories would be of no value to them. Many of the legends, however, are written on books made from the leaves of the palmyra palm,3 but such books are jealously guarded, and any suggestion as to translating or printing them meets with strong objections.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dravidian Gods in Modern Hinduism, Vol. 15: A Study of the Local and Village Deities of Southern India The following thesis is a study of the gods of Dravidian origin which are found in Modern Hinduism. The author has resided. in India almost continuously since 1900, associating somewhat closely with the people, and attempting to learn as much as possible about their various customs. During 1909-10, while pursuing studies in the department of political science and sociology of the University of Nebraska, the investigations reported in this thesis were undertaken at the suggestion of Dr. Hutton Webster, of that department. The greater part of the work has been done since the authors return to India in 1911. The author wishes to express his gratitude to the many friends whose cooperation has made this work possible. Especial acknowledgments are due to Dr. Hutton Webster for reading the manuscript and making invaluable suggestions; to Mocherla Robert, through whose untiring efforts a considerable portion of the material has been secured; and to J. A. Curtis, who has read the manuscript and who, from his accurate knowledge of the Indian people, has rendered great assistance in verifying and interpreting the customs described.
