Info

The Cattle Hundi (Thoovarsh) Cattle hundi (Thoovarsh) is the central livelihood element of the community. This is the place where the buffaloes herd will be kept after the grazing hours of the day. This is essentially a circular large open space, often kept along the slopes, where the steep edges are cleverly landscaped with large bushes to make it look secure. On the upper part of the hundi is a water tank, scoped out of the slope and the far end will be a drainage slit opening to the valley. Like in the temple, the entire space is sunken from the slope to make a comfortable leveled ground for the buffaloes and marked with two vertical stone posts for its entry. A separate small shed (Kodarsh) is provided for the calves of the herd.
