5thly, In the time of Solon and the Pisistratida we findthe four Ionic tribes unchanged, but without any features analogous tothose of the Oriental castes. --(Clinton, F. H. , vol. I. , p. 55. )6thly, I shall add what I have before intimated (see note [33]), thatI do not think it the character of a people accustomed to castes toestablish castes mock and spurious in any country which a few of themmight visit or colonize. Nay, it is clearly and essentially contraryto such a character to imagine t...hat a handful of wandering Egyptians, even supposing (which is absurd) that their party contained members ofeach different caste observed by their countrymen, would haveincorporated with such scanty specimens of each caste any of thebarbarous natives--they would leave all the natives to a caste bythemselves. And an Egyptian hierophant would as little have thoughtof associating with himself a Pelasgic priest, as a Bramin would dreamof making a Bramin caste out of a set of Christian clergymen. But ifno Egyptian hierophant accompanied the immigrators, doubly ridiculousis it to suppose that the latter would have raised any of their ownbody, to whom such a change of caste would be impious, and still lessany of the despised savages, to a rank the most honoured and the mostreverent which Egyptian notions of dignity could confer.
