Land Tenure in Village Ceylon: A Sociological and Historical Study - Cambridge South Asian Studies
Gananath Obeyesekere
This anthropological work of unusual historical depth describes the pattern of land tenure and resulting social structure in the Ceylonese village of Madagama. Dr Obeyesekere analyses the contemporary system in detail, and traces the evolution of every land holding and the correlated kinship pattern from the inception of the estate in 1790.
