KANARESE

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 647 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JUN-KHA
KANARESE , a language of the Dravidian family, spoken by about ten millions of
people
  in southern
India
 , chiefly in Mysore, Hyderabad, and the adjoining districts of
Madras
  and Bombay. It has an
ancient
  literature, written in an
alphabet
  closely resembling that employed for
Telugu
 . Since the 12th
century
  the Kanarese-speaking
people
  have largely adopted the Lingayat form of faith, which may be described as an
anti
 -Brahmanical sect of
Siva
  worshippers (see HINDUISM). Most of them are agriculturists, but they also engage actively in
trade
 .
