Pantheon.—Bedo Gossaik, Pow Gossaik, Davary Gossaik, Kali Gossaik, &c.
The tables of Hodgson show the affinity of the Rajmahali with the Kol, Bhumij, and the true Khond dialects of Orissa; as well as with the Goandi of Central India.
THE BRAHÚI.
Locality.—Beloochistan.
Conterminous with the Indians of Scinde and the Balooches (Biluchi) of Persia.
That the Brahúi numerals were liker those of Southern India than any others, is indicated by Lassen. That the language, in general, is Tamul, may be seen by a comparison of the vocabularies at large. To this fact the Brahúi locality, so far west and north, gives great importance. The date, however, of their occupancy still remains unsettled. They may be recent settlers, or they may be aborigines, for anything known from history.
THE INDO-GANGETIC INDIANS.
Area.—The systems of the Indus, and of the Ganges, Northern India. Continuous, but not uninterrupted; Pulinda populations being interspersed.
Physical appearance.—Often of the second type, and almost exclusively supplying the standard specimens of it.
