प्रश्न
Describe the social conditions that Sangam literature depicts with reference to:
The Castes
उत्तर
The Brahmins, the Kshatriyas, and the Vaishyas appear as regular castes or Vamas in the Sangam texts. An ideal king was one who never caused an injury to the Brahmins. Many Brahmins were celebrated poets, and as such, they were handsomely rewarded by the rulers. Karaikal is said to have given one poet 1,600,000 gold coins, but we consider this comment exaggerated. Besides gold, the Brahmins got cash and land grants from the king .and noble families.
