Gujjar World - History of Gujjar Nation

اس نے کہا ایک ایسی غزل لکھو جس میں میرا نام نہ آئے میں خود آؤں۔۔۔۔ کچھ ایسا ہی حال مسلم اور یورپین تاریخ دانوں نے گجروں کے ساتھ کیا ہے ۔۔ وہ پوری تاریخ بیان کریں گے سب کچھ بتائیں گے۔۔۔ لیکن گجروں کا نام نہیں آنے دیں گے کیسے؟؟؟ میں آجکل ایک کتاب پنجاب کی تاریخ پڑھ رہا ہوں اس کے  مصنف نے اب ریاست کا نام گوجرات لکھا ہے اور راجہ کو بس ہندو راجہ لکھ دیا یا شہزادوں کا خاندان زاور بہت کی کم لفظ راجپوت لکھا ہے ۔۔۔ باقی وہ ہر قوم کی بات کرتا ہے اور بہت تفصیل سے ذکر بھی کرتا ہے ایسا کیوں ہے ؟؟؟ لوگ رہتے گجرات یا گجرانوالہ میں ہیں اور گجروں کو ہی اچھا نہیں سمجھتے ،،، گجر واحد قوم ہے دنیا کی جس کے نام پر اتنے شہر، قصبے یا دیہات آباد ہوں گے کئی علاقے تو ایسے ہیں کہ ان میں اب گجروں کا کوئی بھی گھر آباد نہیں ہے لیکن نام قصبہ گجرات(مظفر گڑھ) ہے ۔ ایسا کیا ہوا تھا؟؟؟ ان سب سوالوں پر جب ہم غور کرتے ہیں تو ایک ہی بات پتہ چلتی ہے کہ جب انڈیا صرف ویران اور جنگلوں میں اٹا ہوا تھا تو گجروں نے اس سارے خطے کو آباد کیا اس میں شہر بسائے ان کو نام دیے لیکن بعد میں آنے والوں نے مختلف حیلوں بہانوں سے گجروں سے ...

The Kushite-Kushan Connection Alice C. Linsley http://jandyongenesis.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-kushite-kushan-connection.html I have been exploring the connection between the ancient Kushites and the Kushan (Kuşāņa) of Bactria and China. The earliest Kushan dynasty about which we have information dates to between 5 B.C. and 50 A.D.  The Kushan split into northern and southern empires around 330 A.D. There is DNA evidence to confirm the Kushite migration out of Africa. The Kushan-Yuezhi provide evidence of the perhaps the most recent movement of the Kushites out of Africa. Some moved into central Asia and China and others moved into Japan. They are also called Gurjar. Gurjar is a reference to their mercantilism and metal work. In Akkadian gurguri means metalworkers or copper smiths. In Oromo gurguru means to sell (gurgurtaa = sale, gurguraa = seller). In Somali gur- refers to collecting something and gurgure means one who collects and keeps collecting. The Gurgure cla...

The Kapilavastu Controversy Part III:History of Kushana Gurjar Kungdom : After visiting the Piprahwa Stupa, Krishna Mohan Srivastava, who was a superintending archaeologist with the Archeological Survey of India took a decision. He decided to commence immediately, excavations over a wide area in Piprahwa to settle, once for all, the controversy about Kapilavastu. He had the support of a previous report of 1962, written by his co-archeologist, Mrs. D. Mitra, who after extensive excavations in the Tiaurkot area, had reported in unequivocal terms that Kapilavastu ruins can be found only near Piprahwa. Srivastava had a premonition that the relic caskets discovered by William Peppe in 1897-98, could not be the original ones received by Sakyas of Kapilvastu as one of the eight claimants to a portion of relics of the Buddha after he was cremated at Kushinagar and which were solemnized by them in a Stupa, for one simple reason. As mentioned earlier, there was an inscription on on...

::Huna origin of Gurjara Clans:: Dr. Sushil Bhati Many renowned historian like A. M. T. Jackson, Buhler, Hornle, V. A. Smith and William crook Consider the Gurjaras to be of Huna stock. The way in which inscriptions and literature records frequently bracket Gurjaras with the Hunas suggests that the two races were closely connected. There are evidences that the Gurjaras were originally a horde of pastoral nomads from the Central Asia whose many clans have Huna origin. Numismatic Evidences- Coins issued by Hunas and Gurjaras have remarkable similarity. In a way coins issued by Gurjaras are continuation of Huna coinage. Coins issued by Hunas and Gurjaras are characterized by motif of ‘Iranian fire altar with attendants’ and are copies of coins issued by Iranian emperors of Sassanian dyanasty. The inferences of Huna’s connection with Gurjaras is strongly supported by numismatic evidences. V. A. Smith has presented these evidences in his paper “The Gurjaras of Rajputana and Kannauj’ in t...
