In 1482 AD, devIvara ghaTaka
was enraged at his kulina cousin (mather's sister's
son) yogeshwara refusing to eat at their house and emphasized the faults of
the kulina brahmins by dividing them into endogamous units called mels. The
faults touched and polluted every family related by marriage. This
led to complicated web of relationships, and I have neither the
time nor interest to track all of that down. This just gives a
flavour: someone needs to write this page properly.
