    Extractions: Current time in Sri Lanka The tragedy of Sri Lanka stems from its ethnic intolerance and militant readings of religious philosophy. The Sinhalese are predominantly Buddhist, the Tamils mainly Hindus, and there are sizeable Muslim and Christian Burgher (descendants of Dutch colonists) minorities. The Sinhalese speak Sinhalese, the Tamils and most Muslims speak Tamil and the Burghers often speak English. The Muslims are scattered all over the island and are thought to be descendants of early Arab or Indian traders. They have largely steered clear of the civil conflict, though there have been clashes between Muslims and Tamils in the east. The Tamils in the hill country are recent low caste arrivals brought in by the British to work on the plantations. They share little in common with the Tamils of the north who have been in Sri Lanka for over 1000 years. The hill country Tamils have generally managed to avoid being drawn into the current ethnic conflict. Sri Lanka's classical architecture, sculpture and painting is predominantly Buddhist. Stupas sprinkle the countryside, and there are several extravagantly large Buddhas sculptures, notably at Aukana and Buduruvagala. Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa have the most impressive archaelogical legacy, but Kandy is the most thriving cultural centre today. Colonial remnants include Dutch forts, canal and churches and British residences, clubs and courthouses. Galle is the finest colonial city on the island.

Sri Lanka Time and Date Sri Lanka Culture Back to Top Sri Lanka lies practically in the center of the Indian Ocean and thus has climatic and cultural links with three continents. Monsoon winds, driving against Sri Lanka's peaks, support lush vegetation on the southern half of the island, but the northern half is a dry zone. The winds affect human culture as well, having brought wave after wave of immigrants and merchants following the southerly trade routes. Outsiders found a wide range of ecological niches on the coast, on the plains, or in the mountains, and they built a remarkably variegated civilization. Merchants long have sought Sri Lanka as the source of pearls, jewels, spices, and tea. Visitors for centuries have marvelled at the beauty and great diversity of the island. The South Asian landmass to the north has strongly influenced Sri Lankan culture in the past and continues to do so. From an outlander's perspective, some of the main aspects of Sri Lankan societylanguage, caste, family structureare regional variants of Indian civilization. From the perspective of the islander, however, the Indian influence is but the largest part of a continuing barrage of stimuli coming to Sri Lanka from all sides. The people of the island have absorbed these influences and built their own civilization. The Sinhalese, a distinct ethnic group speaking the Sinhala (see Glossary) language and practicing a variant of Theravada Buddhism, comprise the majority74 percentof the population, and their values dominate public life. There are, however, substantial minority groups. The Tamils, speaking the Tamil language and generally practicing Hinduism, comprise almost 18 percent of the population. Muslims, many of whom speak Tamil as their main language, make up 7 percent of the populace. Each of the main ethnic groups is subdivided into several major categories, depending on variables of religion or geography. There also are sizable Christian minorities among the Sinhalese and Tamil. People living in the central highland region of the country generally adhere more closely to their traditional ethnic customs than lowland dwellers.

    Extractions: SRI LANKA - HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE SRI LANKA'S HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE covers more than 2,000 years. Known as Lankathe "resplendent land"in the ancient Indian epic Ramayana, the island has numerous other references that testify to the island's natural beauty and wealth. Islamic folklore maintains that Adam and Eve were offered refuge on the island as solace for their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Asian poets, noting the geographical location of the island and lauding its beauty, called it the "pearl upon the brow of India." A troubled nation in the 1980s, torn apart by communal violence, Sri Lanka has more recently been called India's "fallen tear." Sri Lanka claims a democratic tradition matched by few other developing countries, and since its independence in 1948, successive governments have been freely elected. Sri Lanka's citizens enjoy a long life expectancy, advanced health standards, and one of the highest literacy rates in the world despite the fact that the country has one of the lowest per capita incomes. In the years since independence, Sri Lanka has experienced severe communal clashes between its Buddhist Sinhalese majority approximately 74 percent of the populationand the country's largest minority group, the Sri Lankan Tamils, who are Hindus and comprise nearly 13 percent of the population. The communal violence that attracted the harsh scrutiny of the international media in the late 1980s can best be understood in the context of the island's complex historical developmentits ancient and intricate relationship to India's civilization and its more than four centuries under colonial rule by European powers.

32. Sinhalese
    A ethnographic report on the dominant ethnic group of sri lanka (Ceylon).  
    http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/EthnoAtlas/Hmar/Cult_dir/Culture.7869
    
    Extractions: Society-SINHALESE The Sinhalese are the dominant ethnic group of Sri Lanka (Ceylon). As of 1974, the 9.7 million Sinhalese constituted 72 percent of the population. The next largest group, the Hindu Tamil, accounted for 21 percent (Golenpaul 1974: 262). The Sinhalese occupy most of the island, except for the northern quarter and the eastern coast, which are predominantly Tamil (Yalman 1971: 12-13; Nyrop et al. 1971: 93). In the large towns, the populations mix, but in the smaller communities, separation is maintained. Sinhalese is the official language of Sri Lanka, a factor which became a cause of political strife following independence in 1948. It is part of the Indic Sub-branch of the Indo-Iranian Branch of Indo-European. The Sinhalese divide themselves into two groups, the "Up Country people" or Kandyan and the "Low Country people." The Kandyan inhabit the highlands of the south-central region and constitute 38 percent of the Sinhalese and 25.8 percent of the national population (as of 1971). The Kandyan are the more conservative of the two groups and are descendants of the Kandyan Kingdom, which held out against foreign domination for over 300 years until they came under British rule in 1815. Culturally, religiously, and economically, they are closer to traditional Sinhalese ways (Nyrop et al. 1971: 80). The Low Country people, who primarily occupy the southern and western coastal regions, account for 62 percent of the Sinhalese and 42.8 percent of the national population (Yalman 1971: 14; Nyrop et al. 1971: 79). The Low Country people were subject to foreign rule since 1505, starting with the arrival of the Portuguese, and followed by the Dutch in 1656 and the British in 1796, until Sri Lanka's independence in 1948. They served as middlemen for the trade with the interior, in which the Europeans were so interested, and they have adopted much of European culture. Until recently, the Kandyan's attitude of aristocratic superiority toward the Low Country Sinhalese precluded marriage between them. But with the increase in wealth and sophistication of the latter, due to European and other outside contact, these barriers have broken down. The ecology of Sri Lanka is dominated by the semi-annual monsoons dividing the island into two ecological regions: the Wet Zone in the southwest third of the island, and the Dry Zone in the rest. The Dry Zone has only one season of torrential rain per year, and almost all of its 50-75 inches of precipitation falls within a three-month period from November to January (Leach 1968: 15; Yalman 1971: 19). The rains are followed by long droughts. The Kandyan region, except for a small southwestern portion, falls entirely within the Dry Zone. The Kandyan region is more thinly populated, more economically backward, and at a simpler level culturally and socially than the Wet Zone. Subsistence farming is the major occupation. Most of the people live in small villages whose size and location are determined by the availability of water. Most Sinhalese practice irrigated rice cultivation for subsistence. Shifting cultivation (chena), mainly in the Dry Zone, is also practiced, but is opposed by the government, since it destroys what they see as valuable forest resources. Millet is the principal chena crop, but cash crops such as gingelly and mustard are also grown in this fashion and supply the main source of cash to villagers. The major form of employment is as farm labor to high-caste cultivators, and payment is most often in kind. The national economy is mainly dependent on three cash crops, which comprise 95 percent of the agricultural exports. They are tea (56 percent), rubber (23 percent), and coconuts (16 percent), all grown in the Wet Zone. Other minor crops include cacao, cinnamon, citronella, cardamom, and areca nuts. Settlement in the Dry Zone is dependent on water supply. Yalman lists four types of Dry Zone villages. The first and most permanent is the "tank village," which contains a large, artificial reservoir that irrigates the rice fields and is a dependable source of water. The second type is located near mountain streams, which run for a large part of the year. The third type is dependent entirely on rainfall, and the fourth depends on chena cultivation and some hunting to survive. The size and wealth of these villages are in direct proportion to the permanence of the water supply. Villages consist of walled compounds containing dwellings, vegetable gardens, and fruit trees. There is usually only one dwelling per compound and one nuclear family (ge), per dwelling, but sometimes two or three dwellings will be found in a single compound, and occasionally two or more nuclear families are found under one roof. The household, defined as a commensal unit, is also called a ge and is usually composed of a single nuclear family. It has its own separate granaries and cooking facilities. Villages also contain religious shrines, water sources, and agricultural fields. Villages are ideally composed of only one subcaste (variga), although as many as five castes (rare) may be found. Large, low-caste groups are frequently found in their own named hamlets, physically separated from the main village. Social relations between villages are structured by a complex set of caste and subcaste relations and obligations. These overlap and interweave with kin relations. Named castes are distinguished by the traditional services they perform, but these duties are generally ritual, and members of all castes are primarily agriculturalists. Caste obligations tended to bring people of different villages into contact. With the breakdown of the caste structure, resulting from the British abolition of the feudal hierarchy in the early nineteenth century, these relations have tended to atrophy, and villages have become more isolated. But caste consciousness is still very much alive in rural areas, and residence is strictly controlled by caste membership. In urban areas, where wider social and economic opportunities are present, the traditional caste hierarchy is not as clear. Preferred marriage is endogamous within the variga or subcaste group and within the same generation, while marriage is prohibited between parallel cousins. Marriages tend to be between co-villagers or with nearby villages. Since all village members generally belong to one variga, and since an attempt is usually made to marry someone of equal or nearly equal status, over time a majority of marriages turn out to be between classificatory cross-cousins, even though there is no stated cross-cousin preference. Residence is generally virilocal (binna) for men of wealth expecting a large inheritance, and uxorilocal (deega) for poorer men or those with a caste taint, who prefer to get away from their natal village. The political structure of the Kandyan Sinhalese is a reflection of the British colonial system, which was itself influenced by the indigenous feudal hierarchy that it followed. According to Leach, the view of villagers that their contemporary political structure is continuous with the feudal past has some basis, since their relationships with the government representativepresent-day Divisional Revenue Officer, British colonial Ratemahatmaya, or feudal overlordhave scarcely changed. In some cases, the offices have remained within the same family. The village is ruled by an administrative officer called the Vel Vidane, who serves as the executive head and the irrigation headman. In theory, he is the elected representative and spokesman of the villagers. Even with little formal authority, this can still be a very influential post. Above the Vel Vidane is the Village Cultivation Officer (V.C.O.). He is an employee of the Irrigation Department and is responsible for over 50 villages. In agricultural matters, the Vel Vidane takes orders from him. The V.C.O. reports to the tulana or headman, who is in charge of upward of a dozen villages. The latter's duties are mainly clerical, but the most trivial administrative decisions require his approval. The tulana is responsible to the Divisional Revenue Officer (D.R.O.), who must approve most of his decisions. Finally, above the D.R.O. is the Government Agent, whose contact with the villagers is slight. It is the D.R.O. who represents the government to most village people. Leach reports that the recently introduced (1954) village committees, organized to take care of local problems, play little part in people's lives (1968: 28-30). Most Sinhalese are Theravada (Hinayana) Buddhists, although numerous Low Country Sinhalese have become Christians (Nyrop et al. 1971: 189). Popular Sinhalese Buddhism contains many elements of Hinduism and magical-animistic beliefs. Culture summary by Martin J. Malone Golenpaul, Ann, ed. 1975 Information Please Almanac.

Dance and music of the Sinhalese ( Our historical record, the ‘Mahavamsa’, tells us that the Aryan Prince Vijaya heard music on the day he landed on the shores of Lanka.According to Pali scriptures the ‘Yakkas’ (one of the tribes inhabiting the Island at the time) were fond of songs and dances.It may be that some of the devil dances that have remained with us to the present day owe their origin to the ‘Yakka’ dances.) Drums of Sri Lanka ( Sri Lanka has been having many types of drums in use from ancient times, and reference to these are found in some of the classical literature e.g. Pujawaliya, Thupawansaya, Dalada Siritha etc. Although there had been about 33 types of drums, today we find only about ten and the rest are confined only to names.)

This colourful collection reveals its richness and beauty, and the intensity of affection which it has evoked in visitors. Head for the rolling hill country to escape the heat of the plains in the cool of tea plantations. The entire island is teeming with bird life, and exotics like elephants and leopards are not uncommon. To top it all off, the people are friendly, the food is delicious and costs are low. Marco Polo considered Sri Lanka the finest island of its size in all the world, and you'll likely agree after exploring the country's fabled delights. What takes your fancy? Beaches? The coastal stretch south of Colombo offers palm-lined sandy expanses as far as the eye can see. Culture? Try the Kandyan dances, a procession of elephants or the masked devil dances. Ruins? You'll find enough ancient and inspiring architecture in the cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa to satisfy that inner archaeologist, we promise. Though the worst of Sri Lanka's civil war is past, numerous regions are still considered too dangerous to travel. Pockets of the northern and eastern areas are heavily mined. The security situation in the Jaffna Peninsula remains uncertain.
