The roots of sociology and social anthropology in India can be traced back to the colonial period in the 19th century. British administrators, missionaries, and scholars were among the first to systematically study Indian society. Early works in this regard were primarily descriptive and focused on documenting social customs, caste structures, religious practices, and tribal communities.
