Nadar (caste)

Nadar (also referred as ''Nadan'', ''Shanar'') is a Tamil caste of South India and Sri Lanka.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sri Lankan Nadars born with business flair )〕〔"Seventeenth century Tamilaham as gleaned from Jesuit letters", by M. Arumairaj, p. 200, original from = University of California〕 Nadars are predominant in the south Indian districts of Tuticorin, Kaniyakumari, Tirunelveli and Virudhunagar.
The Nadar community was not a single caste, but developed from an assortment of related subcastes and classes of different origins, which in course of time, came under the single banner Nadar.〔() Gazetteers of India Tamil Nadu state: Thoothukudi district by Sinnakani: Page 233-242〕
Nadar climber was the largest subsect of today’s Nadar community.〔 A few subsects of the Nadar community, such as the Nelamaikkarars, were traditionally wealthy landlords and money lenders. Historically, most Nadars were cultivators of palmyra trees and jaggery and a few were also involved in the toddy trade. Nadar climbers had faced discrimination from major upper castes in some regions. The martial art of Southern Kalaripayattu was historically practiced by the Nadars.
The Nadars have made significant strides through their emphasis on education and entrepreneurship. The socio-economic development achieved by the Nadars in southern India has elicited academic interest. They constitute 12% of Tamil Nadu's population. Nadars are classified and listed as an Other Backward Class by the governments of both Tamil Nadu and India.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= List of Backward Classes approved by Government of Tamil Nadu )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Central list of backward classes )
==Etymology==
The community was previously known as ''Shanar'' but legally changed their name to ''Nadar'' in 1921. The title ''Nadar'' is believed to be derived from the Nelamaikkarars, the aristocrats of the Shanar community who had previously used it exclusively. Nadars claim that the original name of the community was ''Shantror'' or ''Shandrar'' (noble one) which, in course of time, was corrupted to Shanar. Channar is a title used by the Ezhava community of Kerala. However, there is no evidence to support these claims.〔
