=====================================================
The caste system in Kerala differed from that found in the rest of India. While the Indian caste system generally modelled the four-fold division of society into Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shudras, in Kerala the Nambudiri Brahmins formed the priestly class and only rarely recognised anyone else as being other than Shudra or untouchables outside the caste system entirely. Thus, the Kerala caste system was ritualised but it was not the varna model found elsewhere. Even inside Kerala, North Kerala castes are different from South Kerala. Until the recent past, they did not follow marriage alliances, citing the differences.
Kerala's caste system was closer to feudalism than to the "Varna" system. Nambuthiris and their spill-out clans (Ambalavasis and Samamntha Nairs) held the vast majority of the lands, sometimes even exceeding the kings.
Also, Kerala had one of the highest migration of different cultures at different times in history, due to its geographical connectivity. The migrants included Babylonians, Arabians, and Jews, and later various Europeans, as well as Sri Lankans, Buddhists monks, Jains and many more.
