The study which involved mapping the genomes of 571 individuals from 73 ethno-linguistic groups establishes that ancient India was one in which all people intermingled freely. The study had improved upon its 2009 findings which involved a smaller sample size of 132 individuals from 25 groups. According to the paper, there were two distinct genetic groups in India: the Ancient North Indian and the Ancient South Indian. They lived in isolation until they crossed paths about 4,000 years ago. They intermingled for 2,000 years and thereafter the societies here began to practice endogamy. Since then there has been little intermingling, suggesting the stranglehold of the caste system. For centuries, the fact that caste had taken the venerated place of tradition meant that India did not have a construct on the origins that was egalitarian. Scientists who worked on the project say that modern-day castes were borne of the segregation practices consciously adopted by what were tribal societies. "Castes grew out of tribal-like organisations during the formation of Indian society," explains Kumarasamy Thangaraj, a scientist at CCMB. According to Thangaraj this was conclusive evidence that pointed towards the fact that prior to 2,000 years, India did not practice endogamy, the practice of marrying within a specific group. http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/49785183.cms http://i.imgur.com/eUYcc.gif |
