MY OLD WORK ON KUTCH IN GUJARATI


I was curator in Kutch Museum Bhuj from May 1988 to November 1991. I lived Kutch fully, making documentaries on her, with Pro. Paresh Mehta, and his research help Gala. K. Thakkar sponsored the whole project. My tours from length and breadth of Kutch persuaded me to write on several myths about Kutchy people. I made effort to put the things in real order filled with facts.
It talks about primitive men in Kutch(chapter 1,2 and 3), tribes (chapter 4-5), epigraphs(ch.6), folk arts (7-8 and 10-11)and museum collection (ch.9).
it got out on 1.10.1992. from Junagadh.
