After completing the Ethnographic survey of the Ollar Gadaba of Koraput district (Orissa) and other official assignments, I was required to take up-thanks to the interest shown by Shri H. K. Rakshit, the then Officer-in-Charge of the Central India Station, Nagpur of the Anthropological Survey of India-the ethnographic survey of the Pengo of Koraput district (Orissa). It was decided by us that I should first ascertain how far the Pengo exist as a distinct ethnic group in the district of Koraput in Orissa; and then I was required to delineate the maximum concentration of their popula- tion in the area of the study. I was also expected to collect some useful data having a bearing on their social organisation as well as on their religious beliefs and practices.
