A fact file on ethnic people of Bangladesh
The ethnic people in Bangladesh hold a very important place in the culture of the country. The majority of these people live in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The others live in the regions of Mymensingh, Rajshahi and Sylhet. They live in forest areas, in the hills and in rural areas. They practise Jhum cultivation. They clear a piece of land in the forest, prepare it and sow seeds in it. They are mostly farmers. By religion they are Hindus, Christians or Buddhists. They speak their own mother tongues.
Some of them are the Chakmas, the Marmans, the Tipperas and the Moorangs who
live in the Hill Tracts. The Santals live in Rajshahi. The Khasias and the
Monipuries live in Sylhet and the Hajangs and the Garos in Mymensingh. Most of
these ethnic people living in Bangladesh have some common characteristics. They
have their own lifestyles. They build their houses on bamboo or wooden
platforms called 'machang'. Rice is their staple food. They eat vegetables,
maize and fish, poultry and meat. Their kitchen utensils are bamboo, wooden and
earthen pots which they make themselves. Men wear lungis and women wear thamis
or sarongs and angis. Women weave their own clothes. Hunting and fishing are
their favourite pastimes. They are fond of songs, music, dances, theatre and
fair. Traditional musical instruments used are bugles made from buffalo horns,
drums and bamboo flutes. Wrestling is a popular sport for them.
