References and Pointers to Further Study

As exotic and sensational educational institution as the Ghotul is, the system is hardly studied or documented. Much of this section comes from first hand knowledge and experience of Kamat while traveling and living with the tribes of Central India. We have compiled the following list of resources for students of anthropology who wish to explore the system of Ghotuls further.
