Kalinga, an ancient region located in present-day Odisha and parts of Andhra pradesh in India, holds historical significance due to its pivotal role in the spread of Buddhism. The Kalinga War, fought between Emperor Ashoka and the Kalinga rulers around 261 BCE, was a transformative event that led to Ashoka's conversion to Buddhism after witnessing the war's devastating impact. This conversion marked a shift towards non-violence and humanitarian governance, influencing the cultural and religious landscape of India and beyond. Kalinga's legacy is also reflected in its rich contributions to art, architecture, and maritime trade in ancient India.
Kalinga textiles typically feature intricate geometric designs and bright colors. They are handwoven by skilled artisans using traditional backstrap looms. The textiles are known for their durability and cultural significance among the Kalinga tribe in the Philippines.
