Best Answer

A Caste System is a social class system or like a pyramid going from the the top the highest caste, and down to the bottom being the lowest caste.

One group called the "Untouchables" were not included in the caste system because they did dirty occupations and were poor.

In Ayran times, they had divided their society into four occupational classes. By PTA times, many additional castes and subcastes had evolved because invaders were absorbed into Indian society and formed new castes.

After the Aryans, major castes numbered in the hundreds, with thousand of minor or local subcastes.
