Indian coracles : ウィキペディア英語版 | Indian coracles
Indian coracles (Tamil:பரிசல், Kannada:ಹರಗೋಲು,ತೆಪ್ಪ) are commonly found on the rivers Kaveri and Tungabhadra in Southern India.〔(Coracles of South India )〕 Coracles are primitive, light, bowl-shaped boats with a frame of woven grasses, reeds, or saplings covered with hides. Indian coracles are considered to have been in existence since prehistoric times,〔 and are a major tourist attraction at the Hogenakkal falls on the Kaveri river.〔 Although these boats were originally designed for general transport, they have recently been used mostly for giving tourists rides.〔(Hogenakkal on TBeez.com )〕 ==Types== The coracles found in the Hogenakkal are of two types, which differ mainly in size. The smaller ones are about 6.2 feet (1.9 metres) in diameter, and are used primarily for fishing. The larger ones, which measure up to 8.4 feet (2.6 metres) in diameter, are used for tourists.〔
