> Brahmins, a scholarly class, have traditionally been atop the Hindu caste system in wide usage in South Asia for millenia There's no real concrcete evidence for this. The British colonialists actually artificaly created most of the caste system rules and hardened them. Much like Leopold in Rwanda and the artificial invention of the Hutu vs Tutsi narrative which had devasting consequences later on. "When the Belgian colonists conducted censuses, they wanted to identify the people throughout Rwanda-Burundi according to a simple classification scheme. They defined "Tutsi" as anyone owning more than ten cows (a sign of wealth) or with the physical feature of a longer nose, or longer neck, commonly associated with the Tutsi.
