The book discusses the caste system of ancient South India, which includes the region of Tamil Nadu. It explores the caste system's genesis and development comparatively, from the 1st century CE to 900 CE. The text delves into the earliest Tamil texts that show the existence of what seems to be caste, which predates the Brahmins and Hindu orthodoxy that are usually thought to be necessary for its existence. The text also highlights peculiar notions about sacred power and the continuance and welfare of society caused by the presence of power in its auspicious form. The book discusses how the continuance of this auspicious and ordered power presupposes the control of dangerous natural power that must feed the king but that must be controlled in its many everyday manifestations. This information can be found on pages 10 and 17.

The book aims to analyze the genesis and development of the caste system in the whole of ancient South India, including Tamil Nadu, comparatively from the 1st century CE to 900 CE. The earliest Tamil texts show the existence of what seems definitely to be caste, which antedates the Brahmins and Hindu orthodoxy that are usually thought to be necessary for its existence. However, caste is seen to depend on a belief system that has peculiar notions about sacred power, and its continuance and welfare in society are caused by the presence of power in its auspicious form. The continuance of this auspicious and ordered power presupposes the control of dangerous natural power that must feed the king, but that must be controlled in its many everyday manifestations. This information can be found on pages 10 and 17.
