Social Classes

The social system that we know as caste was devoloped in ancient India. The indian society is affected by castes although the system was developed out of hinduism.There is alot of confusion surroundng the caste system. The confusion starts with the use of other names in referance for what we know as castes. Many languages reffer to any group of people who share something commmon like, religion,origin, and so on, as Jta. Some people also use the term Varna. People are born into a caste. Even if someone is very poor the can still be considered a Brahmin, wich is the highest class.Legally the caste system is outlawed but it is still a huge part of indian culture and society.
