Chauhan Of Banjara
The Banjara are nomadic tribes found in India. Etymology The Gor usually refer to themselves as ''Banjaras'' and outsiders as ''Kor'', but this usage does not extend outside their own community. A related usage is ''Gor Mati'' or ''Gormati'', meaning "own people". Motiraj Rathod believes that the community became known as ''banjara'' from around the fourteenth century AD and previously had some association with the ''Laman'', who claim a 3,000-year history. Irfan Habib believes the origin of ''banjara'' lies in the Sanskrit word variously rendered as ''vanij'', ''vanik'', and ''banik'', as does the name of the Bania caste, which historically was India's "pre-eminent" trading community. However, according to B. G. Halbar, the word ''banjara'' is derived from the Sanskrit ''vana chara''. The group is known by different names in different parts of the country, including Gor Banjara, Baladiya, Gor, Gour Rajput, Rajput Banjara, Ladaniya, Labana, Nayak, etc. Despite the community ...
