The Dravidians combine, as usual, totemism and exogamy with the classi- ficatory system of relation- ship. The Dravidian family system agrees closely with that of the whether totemism proper is practised by a...ny race of India except the Dravidian. We have indeed found some resem- blances to it in combination with exogamy among the Mongoloid peoples of Assam, ^ but it is not certain that these resemblances are proof of the actual existence of the institu- tion. Exogamy, but not totemism, is practised by the Aryan race in India ; for the Brahmans, Rajputs, and other high castes among the Hindoos are regularly divided into exogamous clans or septs {gotras or gots), and the rule that no man may marry a woman of his own clan {gotra or got) is strictly observed.^ So far as I am aware, no other Aryan people besides the Hindoos is certainly known to have regulated marriage by a rule of exogamy.
