Why did the aryans use the caste system in India

History

Answer:

Explanation:

If a Hindu person were asked to explain the nature of the caste system, he or she might start to tell the story of Brahma — the four-headed, four-handed deity worshipped as the creator of the universe.

According to an ancient text known as the Rigveda, the division of Indian society was based on Brahma's divine manifestation of four groups.

Priests and teachers were cast from his mouth, rulers and warriors from his arms, merchants and traders from his thighs, and workers and peasants from his feet.

Others might present a biological explanation of India's stratification system, based on the notion that all living things inherit a particular set of qualities. Some inherit wisdom and intelligence, some get pride and passion, and others are stuck with less fortunate traits. Proponents of this theory attribute all aspects of one's lifestyle — social status, occupation, and even diet — to these inherent qualities and thus use them to explain the foundation of the caste system.

The Origins of the Caste System

According to one long-held theory about the origins of South Asia's caste system, Aryans from central Asia invaded South Asia and introduced the caste system as a means of controlling the local populations. The Aryans defined key roles in society, then assigned groups of people to them. Individuals were born into, worked, married, ate, and died within those groups. There was no social mobility.

Write a letter in the space below identifying why you do not support the Townshend Acts as well as demanding more representation
Anna71 [15]

I cannot write this letter for you because that is copying (Brainly won't let me use the word here.). But I can give you notes that can help you a lot in putting it together.  you just have to string the information together into sentences and use a little creativity:

*  for background information, the Townshend Act was a series of laws passed by the British government on the American colonies in 1767.  these acts Place new taxes and took away freedoms from the colonists.

- I'm not sure about your teacher but whenever my teachers say to write a letter they need something creative.  showing  dissatisfaction for what has happened is a great way to say that you do not support something.

-when I say elegantly complain I mean to try to hide your complaints between good words and compliments.  make it feel sarcastic without it sounding sarcastic if that makes any sense.)  Things to do that in letters quite a bit.   if you need contacts go onto You Tube and search up Hamilton my obedient servant.  I know it's a musical song but  it shows what I mean of elegantly complaining or insulting a person.

If you have to choose who to write to, write to a trusted friend or family member.

* in your letter try talking about the following:

-elegantly complain about the taxes on the new Imports ( paper, paint, lead, glass,  and tea)

-Personally if I was doing this letter I would write a short fictional story about how bunch of soldiers burst into my house  or business  without reason.

- elegantly complain  about not being represented in Parliament yet being taxed  for an assortment of things that just make no sense.

Since it is a letter. It doesn't have to be long.

hope this helps ^-^
