3.20 THE PEOPLES In the village people from different casts are living in the village and they called as Laari or Dhandhi. The Laaris (lower part of Sindh) use their local accent in the Sindhi language; they speak Sindhi language with different style from those of people in utar (upper part of Sindh) Sindh. 3.20.1 MAJOR CASTES IN THE VILLAGE Caste identity is very important because people‟s relations, behavior patterns and social/ economic status are considered through its group identity. Caste is the basic identity and without it your history is incomplete. There are so many differences among them on the matter of interpretation of caste history. Every one gives its own definitions, reasons, logics and background. There are different castes groups living in the village. 3. 20.1.1 SHEEDI Sheedis, there are two types of Sheedis in Sindh, one they are Arab and speak Balochi language and other they are African and speak Sindhi language. The research was conducted on African Sheedis called as Ghar java and they are mostly peasants. There are four sub castes of Sheedis in the village Hoshiani who are considered as descendents of Hosh Muhammad Sheedi, Molvani the descendents of molvi, Dayani whose women‟s are mostly Daie (Traditional Birth Attendants) and Ganja (bald) in that caste most people are bald that is without hair. 40
