⁵ *See* Muir's "Sanskrit Texts" (i., pp. 480 ffg.) where several passages are to be found in which it is asserted that peoples of quite different races, e. g. Oḍras, Draviḍas, Kāmbojas, Yavanas and Cīnas (Manu, x., 43-4); Yavanas, Cīnas, Pahlavas, Āndhras and Kāmbojas (Çāntiparvan); Çakas, Yavanas, Kāmbojas, Colas and Keralas (Harivaṁça) were originally Xattriyas. This notion is found already in the Brāhmaṇas.
