The caste system is a system that divides Hindus into four main categories - Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and the Shudras. Sorta like a pyramid of food groups in health. These castes were based on peoples daily jobs/occupations. Outside of the caste system there were the untouchables or otherwise known as the "the Dalits".
