The Bhils commonly known as the desert dwellers are the largest tribal group in the Aravali belt of Rajasthan. It is believed that they are the oldest inhabitants of Indian continent. This is the third largest tribal group of Indian sub-continent. The term Bhil is said to have been derived from Tamil word 'Bhilawar' or a Bow man. They live in nuclear families and are highly individualistic. In India, the general health status of the tribal populations is known to be poor because of their dependence on primitive agricultural practices and irregularity of food supply.
