Early Vedic society consisted of largely pastoral groups, with late Harappan urbanization having been abandoned. After the time of the Rigveda, Aryan society became increasingly agricultural and was socially organized around the four varnas, or social classes. In addition to the Vedas, the principal texts of Hinduism, the core themes of the Sanskrit epics Ramayana and Mahabharata are said to have their ultimate origins during this period.

Which is true?
During the vedic age the aryans changed:
a: from nomads to farmers

c: from farmers to nomads
d: from warriors to merchants
Please help! I will award the best answer with 10 points
The Aryans are said to be a semi-nomadic community, who were not sedentary. In the earlier vedic age from 1500-1000 BCE, they remained nomadic. Due to their non-settlement at a particular place, agriculture was not given priority and they were pastorals with priority to cattle rearing. However, in the later vedic age i.e., from 1000 BCE to 600 BCE, due to increased competition, exploration of vast areas, development of better tools, agriculture was given priority over cattle rearing.

I think of the former Empire who conquered South Asia during the Vedic Age. What about you?
Does anyone think of the Empire who created the Vedas or not really?
How did the religous beliefs as expressed by the Upanishads dovetail with the social order during the Vedic Age? I pretty just need to know what they mean when they say “dovetail”.
why did they change? how did the Upanishads exhibit elements of continuity with the religious world of the early Vedic age?
