IT has been the invariable complaint of all who have attempted to write the history of India that, as Hindu literature which teems with mythological legends, is sadly deficient in historical records, it is difficult to say with any precision when India was first peopled by the Hindus, from whom they descended, and from what country they came. It is certain, however, that the people who settled themselves in Hindustan Proper which lies to the north of the Vindya Mountains, came from the north, and called themselves Aryans. They were at that time a pastoral people, keeping camels, horses, oxen and cows. The country to the south of the Vindya Mountains they called the Deccan, i. e., south, and thought it was inhabited by bears, monkeys, goblins and monsters.
