In those days I could not even read the caste colors of Gor, not that all members of a caste could be depended on to appear only in caste robes, which, in many cases, were most likely to appear on caste holidays and city holidays. The fellow in brown, I would later learn, would most likely have been of the Peasantry. The colors of the five high castes were white, yellow, blue, green, and red, for the Initiates, Builders, Scribes, Physicians, and Warriors, respectively. Sometimes the indications of caste were subtle, marked by a pair, or a trio, of short ribbons on the left sleeve, near the wrist. For example, the colors of the Slavers were blue and yellow, but these colors were often displayed, when the slaver was not hunting, merely on the left sleeve, rather than in a full regalia. The colors of the Merchants, which merchants frequently claim to be a high caste, were white and yellow, or white and gold. Some regard the Slavers as a subcaste of the Merchants and others identify it as an independent caste. - (Plunder of Gor, Chapter )
