The Adivasis or the 'first residents' of India are custodians of a culture older than time itself. These indigenous tribes have existed for centuries and with time, their oral tradition has become a treasure trove of myths, legends and stories about every aspect of nature. These stories talk of everything mankind needs to know, from the origin of the world to how certain traditions came into being.

Amar Chitra Katha presents, The Legend of Lohasura - nine stories from Indian Tribal Mythology, a collection of myths and legends from the indigenous tribes of India such as the Oraon, Ahir, Santhal, Agaria, Baiga, Gond and Kandha. Each story is a reflection of the tribe's relationship with nature and its ability to find divinity in every element of the environment.
