  • The Oriya, classically known in various names Odiya, Odri, Utkaliya, Kalingi, Dakhini Kosli etc. , are an ethnic group of eastern India and of eastern Indo-Aryan stock. They are found primarily in the coastal province of Orissa, with minority populations in Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh. The Oriya people are known for their history of Sun worship, and Orissa is home to some of the oldest Sun temples in India, including Konark. They can trace their history to the early Indo-Aryan Kalingas, who built a mighty eastern coastal empire here that was later absorbed into the Mauryan empire. There are also descendants of the Dravidian peoples, now found chiefly in South India, and the early Austro-Asiatic peoples, whose tribal descendants still live in large numbers in Orissa. A well known festival, popular among the Oriya people, is the Ratha Yatra in Puri, Orissa. There is a significant population of Oriyas in Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh.
