The four varnas were -
Brahmins
Kshatriyas
Vaishyas
Shudras
These categories were created as parts of a hierarchy - the mouth, arms, thighs, and feet of a man. The Brahmins were the priests, the Kshatriyas were the rulers, the Vaishyas were the blacksmith or the shop owner, and the Shudras were the servants. They were actually placed in their respective categories because of their occupations. The priest was to study, the ruler to rule and protect, the commoner to cultivate, and the servant to serve.
