Abstract: Folklore forms one of the important ways of expressing traditional knowledge. It is one of the important components of a nation’s cultural heritage. The term folklore was first coined in 1846 by William Thoms, who had used the term in his letter to ‘The Athenaeum’ to replace the terms ‘popular antiquities’ and ‘popular literature.’ [Valsala G Kutty]. This letter was written by Thom to emphasize on the importance of collecting the information pertaining to rituals, songs, legends and other oral traditions of England which were facing a certain death. In this study, we have recorded and documented the important Rituals followed in different festivals related to agriculture and animal husbandry.
