Summary, etc. The International Centre for Ethnic<br/>Studies (ICES) is a non profit research<br/>organisation chartered under the Sri<br/>Lankan company law. Its main<br/>objective is the study of ethnic issues<br/>both nationally and across nations.<br/>The study of tribal groups forms an<br/>important facet of the ICES academic<br/>and research program.<br/>The Veddas of Sri Lanka have<br/>attracted the attention of anthro-<br/>pologists and linguists for well over a<br/>century. The last comprehensive study<br/>of the Veddas was by C.G. and B.Z.<br/>Seligmann in 1911. Although there<br/>have been several studies on various<br/>aspects of Vedda life and culture during<br/>the course of the century, the present<br/>volume can claim to be the most<br/>comprehensive in scope since the<br/>Seligmanns' The Veddas. It arose out<br/>of a workshop on the Veddas held in<br/>Kandy by the ICES in 1983. Four<br/>papers from that work have been<br/>included in this volume, in a<br/>substantially revised form, reflecting<br/>more recent findings. Several other<br/>chapters have been added to these in<br/>the compilation of the present volume.
