O knihe

The material culture of a Kerala village is characterized by a rich tradition of art, crafts, and customs that have been passed down through generations. The use of natural materials such as wood, clay, and coconut fibers is prevalent in the creation of household items, utensils, and traditional clothing. Kerala is known for its skilled artisans who specialize in wood carving, coir weaving, pottery, and metal casting. The villages in Kerala also have their own unique customs and rituals, which are reflected in the material culture. For instance, the use of the traditional oil lamp called "nilavilakku" during religious ceremonies and festivals is a significant aspect of the material culture. The material culture of a Kerala village not only represents the community's history and traditions but also contributes to its economic growth through the promotion of tourism and handicraft industries.
