Halakki Vokkaliga

The Halakki-Vokkalu (Kannada: ಹಾಲಕ್ಕಿ ಸಮುದಾಯ, also transliterated as Halwakki-Wakkal and Halakki-Vokkaliga) are an indigenous tribe of Karnataka, India. They are found predominantly in Uttara Kannada district and are distinct from Vokkaligas.

Halakki Vokkaligas living in the foot of Western Ghats are known as the "Aboriginals of Uttara Kannada". Their way of living is still ancient. The women adorn themselves with beads and necklaces, heavy nose rings and distinctive attire. Halakki speak a different dialect of Kannada called as Achchagannada.
