In this episode, we explore the town of Kothagiri and the indigenous communities that inhabit the Nilgiri Hills in South India. Kothagiri is home to a number of natural attractions such as Catherine Falls, Kodanad View Point, and Elk Falls. The region is also home to several indigenous tribes, including the Todas, Irulas, Kurumbas, Paniyas, Yeravas, and Kothas, who are known for their unique cultures and traditions.

We delve into the history of the region, particularly the role played by John Sullivan, the first British Governor of the Presidency of Coimbatore, in transforming the region into a thriving agricultural centre. We also explore the history, culture, and way of life of the Kothas, including their traditional handicrafts, oral traditions, and connection with nature. Join us as we discover the wonders of Kothagiri and the rich cultural heritage of the indigenous communities that call the Nilgiri Hills home.
