Abstract

Human life is a circular ritual of birth, flower and death associated with the flow of time. The rituals of Tamils depend on socio-economic, religious, political and artistic platforms. Rituals vary by presenting the time, place, environment, need and purpose of which they are performed. Man performed rituals to protect himself from a natural calamity. This article seeks to explain the rituals from birth to death of man on the basis of cultural anthropology.
