Aryans main occupation is agriculture

Answer 2

The caste system established and maintained the belief that lifestyles, jobs, ritual statuses, and social statuses were inherited, influenced by accounts of gods in the Rig-Veda epic.

In the Vedic Period, Aryan society was patriarchal, with men in positions of authority and power passed down only through the male line.

The caste system had four classes:

Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (kings, governors, and warriors), Vaishyas (cattle herders, agriculturists, craftsmen, and merchants), and Shudras (cattle herders, agriculturists, artisans, and merchants) (laborers and service providers).

Untouchables, a fifth caste, were previously excluded from the caste system and were assigned to do the unfavorable tasks.
