Classification of Indian population by BS Guha

B.S. Guha, a prominent anthropologist, made significant contributions to the study of the Indian population, particularly in terms of classifying different groups based on their racial and cultural characteristics. His work laid a foundational understanding of the diversity in the Indian subcontinent, especially in relation to indigenous communities. Guha's classification of the Indian population was primarily based on a combination of physical characteristics, linguistic traits, and cultural attributes.

Guha's population classification system was an attempt to understand the complex mosaic of India's indigenous people, which included a wide variety of ethnic, linguistic, and cultural groups. The primary classification was based on racial categories, which were influenced by the contemporary anthropological theories of the time, such as the Aryan and Dravidian theories. He identified three broad racial categories within the Indian population:
