The four Indian castes appear as ranks, with different though corresponding names, in Baktria also, as well as in Europe in the middle ages, and wherever society stands at the same stage of development. Castes, at any rate with the same rigid separation, are found nowhere but in India. There they were originally four in number, three being Aryan, viz. , that of the Brahmans, i. E. , the learned ; that of the Eajanyas or Kshattriyas, i. E. , the princes and warriors ; and that of the Vaisyas, i.... E. , the commonalty, the people (vis), and one being non- Aryan, viz. , the Sudras, i. E. , the natives, who served the Aryans, and especially the Brahmans, as slaves. The general name which they bore enables us to conjecture how they arose. They were called Varna, which denotes both " kind " and " colour. " This term at first simply indicated the difference between the whiter Aryans and the dark- coloured natives whom they subjugated, and with whom, as though belonging to a different kind, they would hold no intercourse.
