Summary: M-Bihar, and the LakOra (people of Videha) writing mnd/aiT.' It is quite likely of course, that even at the time when these writings were compiled, these races were no longer distinct, in many cases, from their Brahman neighbours, with whom they had absorption. The history which these facts, viewed in connection with the evidence of the pure Rajput clans themselves, suggest, is that there were in India some ancient non-Aryan races who primitively occupied, as aborigines, a high position as rulers. That later, when the superior Aryan tribes spread themselves over the country, these aborigines were driven out or reduced, and that in the early centuries of the Christian era what remains of them were largely admix* petated. They had in most cases, of course, been driven back or already reduced to subjection 1 The Sanskrit words given in the text are Ramjafit, Manjafit, and LamjafiM earliest peopled or at least always the longest peopled throughout the Aryan invasions of the north. Those castes or tribes with the finest average (Brahmans, 0) continue to the coarsest (Bhils, 9) . ’ Dr. Wilson, against all evidence, claimed the Bhikshus as pure Brahman Aryans ; his view was endorsed by Professor Max Muller. But Buddha is now known to have been a Kshatrtiya by birth. The four principal grades of race colour in Bengal and Behar are clearly correlative with the social position of the castes, as well as with the presumed antiquity of the stocks.’ This would mean that sinco -there is a regular gradation of the nasal index, so there are regular gradations in point of goodness of family, or in point of the antiquity of ancestry. It is an extraordinary fact that the genealogists should have found in this physical element so sure an indication, and that the gross divisions of mankind should have so exactly tallied with the divisions in the matter of family and of descent. But it cannot be doubted that the divisions, being once made, and the nasal index once set up as a reliable test, it was afterwards employed compulsorily. It is these divisions, and not the condition of the noses, that have to be explained,' (/f. Lihsoii, i. 13.) ** (tie (st, iCjlcly, again, points out the same, though in that case it is not so observable, showing that the argument is cumulative. His identification of Dravidian and Caucasian, which he admits, would imply that the feature was probably not exaggerated racially. His statement that the courses races of Bengal are more honest and reliable, while the nasal index of the mors Indo-Aryan races is less gross, does pot very,' well agree with the idea of Dravidian greater antiquity and purity of blood. It is another support of what is here argued, while the term Arya-man is less gang of castes. Fish is a recognition of what the gaster means by ' castes.’ Some of Mr. Risley's-suggestive lists of tribes are printed in the N.-W.-P, Gazetteer, vol. xiv. and uken from his ‘Tribes and Caste* of Bengal.’ 1 The story of Kslsetriya impurity is confirmed by their occupation in all parts and instances of ‘taboo/’ Dr. SgodgrancL'V remarks about th* Mlyar territory of Upper India: ‘It is a remarkable thing that a larger, tract of Count ry Peopled by Saiva militia [militant tribes who have given up agriculture fox the sword] ar« commonly of non-Aryan origin. These tracts ars known as Mlyar or Maid&k, a large section of which occupies the western portion of the Uprir Indian plain, and stretches from Agar in Central Indi's to Bareilly hi N.W.P. (Mummsr, Report of Expedition into Cairat Territory, p. 102.’ This statement'is very important, as shoving the occupation in force of the kind of country taken by non-Aryans. * The ‘Salwfi militia’ bihegst occupation was that of the L&dhilnts; These are interesting from the ifleet they backed persist, perhaps traced its descent more reliably than the Rajput, whose ‘ family tree ’ coui In rot-bet confessed!; the Hindu chroniclers of all rank do not deal very differently vkth the few races! of greater antiquity They should stand iii the same category with the Jat, Gujar, Gond, Bjtil, and Kuc/jhi, all upturned and most aDOArlOinal races, which I am endeav­ ouring to set before the reader.
