Ezhavas of Kerala constitute more than 40% of the Hindus and were involved in many professions such as agriculture, coir industry, trading etc. Many were and continues to be artisans like weavers etc. They also have martial traditons and were in the armies of the Kingdoms of Kayamkulam, Ambalappuzha etc. The medieval folklore of Aaromal Chekavar and Unniyarcha of Puthuram veedu also belongs to Thyyas/Ezhavas.
Though only a small section of Ezhavas were involved in liquor industry, it probably is a stereotype for the community.
Nadars of Tamil Nadu also has a similar story. They are predominantly traders and businessmen with only a small section involved in the toddy tapping. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.196.164.190 ( talk • contribs)
I'm an American. What is toddy and how does one tap it? I have developed several mental images of this activity but I'm sure they are incorrect. -- CliffC 01:29, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
