Summary, etc. Village studies have been undertaken by social scientists in different parts of the country. Unfortunately, no intensive study of village communities has been carried out in the eastern most region of Assam. Anthropologists are gradually begi ning to realise the need of such studies in the Assam plains with a view to finding out how the village society here differs from or approximates the societies in other parts of India.<br/>This is study of an Ahom village. The Ahoms, who form a distinctive population of Assam, were so far a subject of historical research. Much work has been done in the sphere of Ahom history and cultural traditions. But the knowledge of their past is not adequately supplemented by a knowledge of their present. It remained a desideratum to be filled in by a live interest of the anthropologists in the country. To answer the need, the present author undertook a field study. It is a study of one village community and therefore it is in the nature of a micro-study.<br/>The book is a revised version of my doctoral thesis (1975), entitled, "Moranjan: Social Relations in an Ahom Community of Assam", which was accepted by the Dibrugarh University. It is based on the study of an actual village named Moranjan. Though the name of the village has been retained as such, the names of all the informants and others have been given in pseudonym, lest the use of real names wound the sentiment of them, however unwittingly it may be.
