What attracted the Santal even more than the virgin soil and well-stocked hunting-ground, was the circumstance that he could there preserve his nationality intact. Those who settled on the waste lands of Beerbhoom soon came to be re- garded, both by the surrounding lowlanders and by their former highland kinsmen, as a low caste of Hindus. They lost their old customs, their religion and social institutions grounded on the family basis, with the equality between man and man which those institutio...ns imply, and subsided into an insignificant caste of the great Hindu community. Indeed in the lowland village the Santal was regarded as a flesh-eating barbarian, and had to take his place in the lowest rank.
But Hindus rarely penetrated the northern hill country inside the ring of pillars, and the Santal 61a -y[^_ John Petty Ward, of the Civil Service, may be considered the founder of this colony. The ring fence is 295 miles in circum- lerence, containing 866 square miles of highland and 500 of lowland territory.
