India history and geography
Source: Project Gutenberg: Castes and Tribes of Southern India, Volume 1Thippa (“rubbish-heap”) is one of the exogamous septs (divisions) among the Karna Sales (a caste of Telugu weavers). The Karna Sale are called Seniyans in the Tamil country, e.g., at Madura and Tanjore. The name Karna would seem to have its origin in the legend relating to the Karnabattus (both Saivites and Vaishnavites). They are said to have only one gotra, Kasi (Benares), and numerous exogamous septs (e.g., Thippa).
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.

Prakrit is an ancient language closely associated with both Pali and Sanskrit. Jain literature is often composed in this language or sub-dialects, such as the Agamas and their commentaries which are written in Ardhamagadhi and Maharashtri Prakrit. The earliest extant texts can be dated to as early as the 4th century BCE although core portions might be older.
