Dambana Ancient “Veddah” Tribal Village: This tour will give you the opportunity to meet the surviving indigenous population of Sri Lanka the “Veddah” population, whose history spans close to 2000 years. The true plight of “Veddah” will help you to look at them as group of human beings rather than an array of exhibits. They were the ancient custodians of the jungles and they were “at home” in the jungles. Since the department of Wild Life was established and the Fauna & Flora ordinance was empowered to protect the forests and the wild life of Sri Lanka the “Veddah” population was deprived of their natural habitats and livelihoods & their tools and weapons and they were forced out of the jungles. Jungles were declared National Parks and most of other prosperous land was taken over by the Mahaweli Development projects. Today, with the intension of further protecting the “Veddah” population they are restricted to Dambana and they were given alternative methods of survival, farming. Originally the young “Veddah” boys observed & learnt the art of catching a game from their fathers and girls took after their mothers in managing the home and rearing children. But today the children from “Veddah” population are sent to school to get more ‘civilized’ education. “Veddah” population was never used to being confined to “a village” as they were much used to the rustic abodes in the jungles. So what is normal & civilized for the rest of us is “abnormal” for the “Veddah”. Ironically, today the “Veddah” themselves and the various customs and tribal dances that they perform when visitors come to their “village” are not mere exhibition or a performing art, but the innate life style that they dearly miss. The silent appeal from the “Veddah” population is to be back in their natural forest habitats where they lived harmoniously with nature, protecting each other.
