Homeward Bound! Though I Wonder Where Home is
The nomads in India have different callings that have become hereditary in the stratified caste system that came in the Vedic period of history of the Indian sub continent and is still a plague that afflicts this country in countless ways.
While some still ferry sheep and goats from pasture to pasture, others like Lambadiyas carried salt and some others did the entertainment, snake charming etc., while some made iron implements and such moving from place to place.
This is a group of nomads who probably work in makeshift settlements that they put up and make iron implements and tools used in agriculture and houses.
Times have changed and you can make out at least one young nomad who has discarded the traditional clothes.
Even if it rains or snows, they swing low with heads held high on the highway of the Great Movement that began so many millions of year ago from the plains of Africa. While most of the mankind has stopped its yearly journeys in search for food, the journey has not stopped for these handful few.
