How Aadivasi's came in to existence.
Well this story comes from Vishnu and Brahamand puran.
King Sagar (From Ikshavaku dynasty) was on rampage to Kill Kshatriya kings. These were the remaining Kshatriya kings who were left by lord Parashuram's rampage.
To save themselves Kshatriya kings had gone to sage Vashistha and request to save them from King Sagar. Sage Vashistha then ordered king Sagar to stop the killings.
King Sagar told those remaining Kshatriya kings that he will only leve them in 1 condition that those Kshatriya kings needs to make caves as their Abode. And these people who lived in caves were known as Aadivasis.
