From Galdan's Erdeni Yin Erike:
“In the time of the Mahasammata, humans were divided in four izagur — Qa'an, Biraman, Noyon, Kharalig”
This is akin to H caste, also reference to Mahasammata is from B tradition, where he is the first king of the world.

No points for guessing that Biraman comes from skt. Brāhmaṇa
Qa'an means King
Noyon means warrior.
kharalig means servants.
No baniyas in Mongolian caste system. Izagur/at in modern times only implies aristocratic descent.
