| Description |
According to the recent archaeological findings, humans have been living in Sri Lanka since 30,000 BCE. Today, the people are made up of five ethnic groups. Sinhala, which is the majority, Tamil, Moor, Burger, and Malay. This diverse population is made more diverse through religious beliefs; there are devoted Buddhists (both Theravada and Mahayana), Hindus, Roman Catholics, Christians, and Muslims. Each ethnic and religious group has its own ICH, but these communities live in peace and harmony, showing respect to each other as Sri Lankans. |
