Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The varnas have been known since a hymn in the Rigveda (the oldest surviving Indian text) that portrays the Brahman (priest), the Kshatriya (noble), the Vaishya (commoner), and the Shudra (servant) issued forth at creation from the mouth, arms, thighs, and feet of the primeval person (purusha).
Detailed explanation-2: -A Caste System divided Indian society into groups based on their birth, wealth, or occupation. The caste to which a person belonged determined his or her place in society, including who that person’s spouse, friends, and occupation could be. This was usually permanent, but was not always the case.
