rajputs origins gurinchi different theories unnai...rajputs lo bocchudu clans, subclans unnaayi...annitiki vaati vaati traditional theories unnaayi like agnikula kshatriya myth, suryavanshi descendants ani, chandravanshi descendants ani, mahabharatam lo paalpanchukunnaaru ani etc... all the rajputs were tribals, or foreign invaders etc...they were outside the varna system when they got the power...they wanted to legitimise their power...according to hindu smritis only kshatriyas were allowed to rule...so they developed these different myths with the help of brahmanas and traced their geneologies upto suryanvashis or chandravanshis which makes them kshatriyas... :-) when rajputs were emerging during post-gupta period, india was going through a turmoil...hunas started invading in 5th cnetury AD, then muslims in 8th century...trade was on decline and towns were on decline...agriculture was expanding and tribals were being incorporated into hindu fold...there was no one powerful central empire like guptas or mauryas...this is when tribals like rajputs started establishing their owen local kingdoms... as rajputs were tribes, their society was based on kinship ties...land under their control was parcelled among their kin...subinfeudation followed...and slowly they expanded...this is how different subclans of different clans of rajputs came into existence... rajputs origins gurinchi inka chaala undi...detailed account kaavaali ante pedda books ye unnayi...antha details vaddu anukunte oka ignou booklet isthaanu... :-) |
