Abstract
Economy is one of the major sub-system of any social system. Economy is the organization of production and distribution and consumption of goods and services within a socio cultural system. It refers to the ways people make their livelihood. The ancient economy of this tribal is governed by its geography and its natural resources endowment. They lived a very simple rural life, isolated from the larger world. In the olden times this tribesmen, isolated from modern civilization and advance technology, depended their livelihood directly on their lands. Agriculture is the mainstay of their economy and they largely depend on their forest resources. Their simple life demands not more than their basic necessities and they are able to maintain themselves with whatever is produced from their village. Their entire economic operations are based on the direct production of the land. Over time the interaction which developed between this tribal and the larger world outside their secluded system gradually introduced changes in their economy. Modernisation and cultural contact with the larger society have brought about economic changes in this tribal community. The wave of modernisation is seen to be breaking down the traditional mode of subsistent economy resulting to a new mode of modern commercial agricultural economy.
