  1. The Ghorewaha (No. 13). —The head-quarters of the Ghorewaha are the Jalandhar district,
    of whiih they occupy the eastern corner, and are found in small numbers in all the
    adjoining districts. To the west of them are the Manj, and to the north of them the Naru.
    They are almost all Musalman. They are Kachwaha Rajpilts, descendants of Kash,the second son
    of Rama. They say that Raja Man, sixth in descent from Kash, had two sons Kachwalia and
    Hawaha, and that they are of the lineage of Hawaha. The two brothers met Shahab-ul-din Ghari ( !)
    with an offering of a horse, and received in return as large a territory as they could ride round in
    a day ; hence their name. The division of their country took place while they were yet Hindus,
    so that their settlement in their present tract was probably an early one. The Rahon Ghorewaha,
    who are still Hindus, would seem to have immigrated more lately than the rest of the tribe, as
    they trace their origin from Jaipur, and their genealogists still live in Kota and Bundi in
    Rajputana. Mr. Barkley is disposed to put the Ghorewaha conquest of their present territory at
    some five centuries ago. In the time of Akbar their possessions would seem to have been more
    extensive than they are now.
