Exhibit of the week- 123 (03rd to 09th October 2022) Bastar Dussehra Rath The Dussera is celebrated in various parts of India to mark the victory of the god “Rama” or the goddess “Shakti” over the evil powers. But in Bastar, Chhattisgarh it is an occasion to propitiate the supreme goddess “Danteshwari Mai” of the local pantheon. It is believed that “Bhagawan Jagannath” had gifted a chariot having twelve wheels to “Mai Subhadra” to rule the Bastar which she gifted to Purushottam Dev- the King of Bastar. And then the king offered it to “Danteshwari Mai” the supreme goddess of Bastar. Since then, during Dussera the Rath Parikrama is celebrated in Jagdalpur, the district headquarters of Bastar by placing a palanquin of Goddess Danteshwari on it. As it was difficult to construct such a huge single chariot, the King allowed to construct two smaller chariots i.e. “Raini Rath” (Vijay Rath)-the eight wheel chariot used during Dussera festival and the “Phool Rath”- the smaller four wheel chariot used in Goncha festival. The size of “Raini Rath” is about 32 feet long, 18 feet wide and 18 feet high. The size of “Phool Rath” is about 32 feet long, 17 feet wide and 17 feet high. The construction of “Rath” is a systematic process with division of labour and distribution of work among the specified villages and specified communities. People of Billari village organise “Pata Jatra” for collection of wood from Jungle to construct the wheels. The overall responsibility of the construction is traditionally vested in the “Savara Naiks” of villages “Jharumargaon” and “Beda Umargaon”. Villagers from these villages take up the construction of the chariot. Before starting the construction certain rituals and sacrifices are made to the goddess. After completing the construction the palanquin is kept on the chariot and taken for the Parikrama during Dussera festival. Acc.

पायली-एक मापन पात्र Exploring with: @igrmsbhopal पायली, छत्तीसगढ़ के लोक और जनजातीय समुदायों द्वारा उपयोग किया जाने वाला मापने का एक पात्र है। यह पीतल का बेलनाकार पात्र है जिसका आधार सपाट और ऊपरी हिस्सा संकरा है जो एक संकीर्ण खुले मुंह का निर्माण करता हैं। बाहरी हिस्से को आड़ी पट्टियों और टेढ़ी मेढ़ी लकीरों के रूपांकन से सजाया गया है। इसके मध्य भाग में एक गोलाकार कुण्डी जुड़ी है। मापने वाले ऐसे पात्रों का उपयोग चावल, तेल, नमक और अन्य आवश्यक वस्तुओं के बदले अनाज उत्पादों के आदान-प्रदान के लिए किया जाता था। इस तरह के मापने वाले पात्रों को अब तेजी से तराजू से बदल दिया जा रहा है। पायली का निर्माण हॉलो कास्टिंग की लॉस्ट वैक्स पद्धति द्वारा की गई है। छत्तीसगढ़ में ऐसी धातु की ढलाई का काम घड़वा समुदाय द्वारा की जाती है। आरोहण क्रमांक - 96.389 स्थानीय नाम - पायली-एक मापन पात्र समुदाय - बस्तर की जनजातियाँ स्थानीयता -बस्तर, छत्तीसगढ़ माप - ऊंचाई - 13 सेमी; आधार का व्यास -13.5 सेमी; श्रेणी - ‘ए’ #payli #measuringpot #ghadwa #bastar #tribesofbastar #chhattisgarh #lostwaxprocess #igrms #museumfromhome #objectoftheweek #ethnograhicobject #museumobject #museumofman #museumofmankind #museumofhumankind #experienceigrms #igrmsstories #staysafe #covid19 #cfor36garh (at Bastar, Chhattīsgarh, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMeQbxarCp2/?igshid=tzscvv6uby7y

Exploring with: @bindublossoms - How do you cherish the memories of your loved ones? - the ones who leave you in this mortal world to continue their journey in some other world. . . These are the Memory Pillars of the deceased of tribes of Bastar. They erect these pillars to show the important events, aspirations, feelings of the deceased. You can see the top of the tribal memory pillar where deer head is formed in four directions. The wooden memory pillar near to the coloured one dates back to more old times. Some of the wooden memory pillars are more than 3000 years old and are in a need of conservation by @archaeologicalsurveyofindia. . . When in Bastar try to learn more about the culture of the people. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #sahapedia #tribesofbastar #talesofbastar #unexploredbastar #tribalculture #iamtb #travelwriter #exploremore #nativeindian #IncredibleIndia #DiscoverIndia (at Bastar, Chhattīsgarh, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0nPtYohDsU/?igshid=158v1tbdo6gzh
