It is still used in the Commonwealth countries of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, as well as Nepal and Egypt. In Europe According to the American historian Stephanie Coontz, marriages between Anglo-Saxons were organised to establish peace and trading relationships.

Kuruba is a Hindu caste native to the Indian state of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are the third-largest caste group in Karnataka. Traditionally, these are shepherds who used to do the work of sheep/goat and animal husbandry and agriculture, in which they especially raised mixed herds of sheep and goats and cattle. Etymology The term ''kuruba'', meaning ''shepherd'', is derived from ''kuri'', meaning ''sheep'' in Kannada.
