Who they are
The Malayarayar are a tribal community living on the slopes of the Western Ghats in southern India, mainly in the state of Kerala. With strong historical ties to the region’s forests and hills, they preserve their distinctive customs and speak Malayalam. Although many follow Hinduism interwoven with ancestral traditions, some families have professed the Christian faith for generations.
