In other words, a product of incest. That is the precise OPPOSITE of
a prohibition of mixed race marriage - it said that they had to marry
someone OUTSIDE the family (and hence in early generations, outside
the tribe).

Notice that the primary meaning is the traditional meaning of
"bastard" in our culture. The extension to mixed populations is
marked as FIGURATIVE "(fig.)".
