Sepoys were natives of India in the employe of an European Nation, mainly England. When in 1857 they were issued greased cartridges for their new breach loaded rifles, previously used muskets. A rumor soon ensured to the effect that the grease was either pig lard or beef fat, in either case, abhorrant to both the Muslims and Hindi sepoy Soldiers. By May of 1857 the matter became a full blown mutiny. Quickly and creully subduded by the British.
