Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 06
Abstract
Local history is an original method to see how a community works because it shows how it has changed over time and how the people there have affected it. It shows how changes in society have affected the everyday lives of regular people and how they have dealt with them. Also, learning about local history helps us understand the tradition of the community by showing us where street names, sites, and buildings came from and what they mean. Local history study helps us understand how historical stories are made by looking at how environment, economy, society, and population change affect each other. It looks at smaller, more localized situations to ask bigger questions about how society has changed. Local history is the study of both people and places. It gives us a way to see how the small world of our town interacts with the big world of the rest of the world. Local history is like a miniature version of bigger historical patterns. It helps us connect big trends with specific stories about people's lives. This journey helps us understand that history is not just something we learn in school, but something that is all around us and a part of our communities. As people learn more about their community's past, they realize that they are creating its ongoing story and adding to its historical tapestry in their unique ways. Local histories are often based on oral customs and may not have the formal support of well-known historical events, but they are still useful for learning and getting information. By bringing up shared traditions and experiences, local history can help shape policy, encourage community growth, and help people get along by bringing them together. As a place to keep different traditions and stories alive, it helps us learn more about the past. Local scholars are very important to this project because they teach and lead in their communities. Their love of history makes people think more deeply about and appreciate the past, which helps people feel more connected to their community and roots. Local histories may use modern words and ways of telling stories, but they are still based on area traditions and customs, so they can be understood by people at different levels. In closing, learning about local history gives us a deeper understanding of how our towns are woven together and how the people who live there live their daily lives. The Pallalamma Temple of Vanapalli is a great example of how important it is to keep cultural and spiritual practices alive through local icons. The goal of this case study is to shed light on the temple's historical roots, how it has changed over time, and how it continues to be important to the people of Vanapalli. The purpose of this study is to learn more about the temple's traditions, holidays, and beliefs to better understand how it has changed local life and how it still has meaning in modern times.
