Abstract
B. R. Ambedkar’s original research on the caste system in India is an unexplored area. In this article, an attempt has been made to appreciate the views of Ambedkar on the origin of the caste system in India and the relationship of the anthropological milieu of the United States of America during the time of Franz Boas in shaping his thoughts. Ambedkar gave importance on the endogamy of caste superimposed on tribal exogamy, and he maintained an academic detachment from his painful personal experiences, while presenting his seminar paper on caste at Columbia University, USA.
B. R. Ambedkar对印度种姓制度的原始研究是一个未开发的领域。本文试图了解安贝德卡对印度种姓制度起源的看法，以及鲍亚士时期美国人类学环境对其思想形成的影响。Ambedkar在美国哥伦比亚大学发表关于种姓的研讨会论文时，强调了种姓内婚制叠加在部落外婚制上的重要性，他从痛苦的个人经历中保持了学术上的超然。
