¹ In the *Imp. Gaz.*, vol. I, p. 382, it is suggested that the Brāhūīs who are there ethnographically classed as Turko-Irānian show the original type of Dravidian, and that the modern Dravidian type is physically due to influence by the Muṇḍā speaking peoples. The Rigvedic evidence does not favour this view. See Chapter II, pp. 42-3.
