Nadar (also referred to as Nadan, Shanar and Shanan) is a Tamil caste of India. Nadars are predominant in the districts of Kanyakumari, Thoothukudi, Tirunelveli and Virudhunagar. The Nadar community was not a single caste, but developed from an assortment of related subcastes, which in course of time came under the single banner Nadar. Nadar climbers were 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 Varma Kalai was historically practiced by the Nada

  • Надар (так же упоминается как Надан, Шанар, Шана) — тамильская каста в Индии. Они преобладают в округах Каньякумари, Тутикорин, Тирунелвели, Вирудунагар. Община Надаров не была единой кастой, но состояла из ассортимента родственных подкаст, которые в ходе времени стали под единым названием — Надар. Надары-собиратели были крупнейшей сектой сегодняшней общины Надар. Маленькие секты Надаров, такие как Наданы, традиционно были состоятельными помещиками, лендлордами и ростовщиками. Исторически сложилось так, что Надары были культиваторами пальмировых пальм и неочищенного пальмового сахара, некоторые из них участвовали в торговле пальмовым вином — тодди. Надары-собиратели столкнулись с дискриминацией со стороны большинства высших каст в некоторых регионах. Военное искусство Варма Калаи, историче (ru)
