Thousands of them have lost their lives in saving their lands from the then-upcoming tribe called the Banjaras. The staple food of Gonds is millets. Vegetables are usually grown in kitchen gardens or collected from forests. Gonds grow tobacco for smoking and make liquor from the Mahua tree for celebrations. They perform a dance called 'Danderi' depicting tales of Gond mythology. Dance, songs and cockfighting are the main attractions of any celebration. Tattooing is also a major charm for their festivals. They have a knack of making bamboo and cane products and metal crafts, which form an important place in the traditional handicrafts.
