Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Brahmanas dominated society during the medieval period. This was according to the varna system which contains four varnas called Brahmanas, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra. Each varna had different duties to perform. The reason Brahmanas dominated society during the medieval period was because they acted as mediators between God and the pilgrim. They also got the opportunity to read the sacred text of religion hence they were given huge respect by the people. Next in the hierarchy were Kshatriyas who were the warrior people. Similarly, Vaishyas had the duty to perform trading and Shudras were given low status in society.
