Title
Digital inventories on Cultural Memories and Intangible Cultural Heritage: Case study of Yadav community of Haryana, India
Abstrat
Across the Globe, all communities have their own social and cultural memories such as ritual, customs, traditions and folk lore. These are being practiced over a long period using folk music, folk dance, chanting and other oral methods. In India almost every community has its own oral (ShrutiItihaas) history and intangible cultural heritage. We, the Indians are losing our oral history, traditions and intangible cultural heritage at a very fast rate. There is an urgent need to connect our cultural heritage memories with digital technologies such as digital documentation of cultural memories. Yadav is one of the oldest and most prominent castes in Indian society. It’s a warrior clan originated from the era of Lord Krishna. Their oral history and Intangible cultural heritage is not passing out to next generation in a proper manner. Once our old generation is gone, we will lose the links of socio-cultural memories. ‘Globalization’ and ‘Modernization’ have affected the Yadav community in terms of Oral History and Intangible Cultural Heritage. The advent of technology has enabled us to support and save the cultural memories of the communities. "
