Guptan
Guptan ((マラヤーラム語:ഗുപ്തന് )) is a Hindu caste from the Palakkad district of Kerala, South India. The majority of the Guptans are located in Valluvanad, with major agglomerations around Vayillyamkunnu, Katambazhippuram, Sreekrishnapuram, Chethallur and Mannarkkad. Many Sanskrit scholars and popular astrologers originated from this community. == Etymology == The name ''Guptan'' is derived from the Sanskrit word ''Gupt'' "protected, secret".〔http://dsal.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/search3advanced?dbname=soas&query=gupta&matchtype=exact&display=utf8〕 It also denotes the position in society.〔Laghu purana nighandu by Vettom Mani, p. 236〕
