Map of Damoh District‎

Damoh Jat Gotras Namesake is partial list of the peoples or places in Damoh district of Madhya Pradesh, which have phonetic similarity with Jat clans or Jat Places. In list below those on the left are Jat clans (or Jat Places) and on right are people or place names in Damoh District. Such a similarity is probably due to the fact that Jats had been inhabitants and rulers of this area in antiquity.

There is further need to study ancient history of these places and establish any inter-connection. This compilation does not claim any inter-connection but is to help further research.

  • Dangi (दांगी) (Jat clan) → Dangi (दांगी). Dangi (दांगी) is mentioned in (118) Sun River Slab of 1302 AD.[18] which reveals that On the bank of Sun River near Rond there is a stone dated in 1302 AD with the figure of a horseman named Baiju, who is described as Vaghadeva's Dagi (दागी), a term which seems to have been used for some military officer. It is possible that in course of time it gave its name to the occupational caste, now known as Dangi (दांगी), with a military swagger about them found in this part of the country.
  • Dhnoa (धनोवा) (Jat clan) → Dhanau (धनोवा). Dhanau (धनोवा) is mentioned in Verse-11 of No.9.

  • Gauri (Jat clan) (गौरी) → Shrigauri-gadha (श्रीगौरी-गढ़). Shrigauri-gadha (श्रीगौरी-गढ़) is the origin of the name Singoragadha. (112) Tharraka Sati Inscriptions of 1513 AD[20] contains five Sati pillars reoffering to the Gond regime. One is dated in samvat 1570 (1513 AD) during the reign of Amhandasadeva (आम्हणदासदेव) surname Sangram Sahi (संग्राम साही), the greatest king of the Gond dynasty. It mentions Tharraka (ठर्रका) as included in Shrigadha Gauri Vishaye Durge (श्रीगढ़ गौरी विषये दुर्गे), which furnishes a clue to the real derivation of Singoragadha fort from Shrigauri-gadha (श्रीगौरी-गढ़), fancifully derived by Cunningham from Gajasimha Durga, a name which appears to have been imposed by a Parihara Raja Gajasmha, but the old name asserted itself when the Parihara rule vanished. We kno that Gauri (गौरी) is a gotra of Jats[21], name of Parvati, name of a River in Mahabharata. Gauri (गौरी) is mentioned by Panini in Ashtadhyayi.
  • Gomat (गोमत) (Jat clan) → Gomatha (गोमठ). Gomatha (गोमठ) is mentioned in Verse- 8 and 9 of No.9. Batihagarh stone Inscription Samvat 1385 (1328 AD)[22].... (V. 8) The son of Isakaraja (ईसाकराज), was the clever, wise and very heroic Jallala Khoja (जल्लाल खोजा), who considering his stock of religious merit in his mind caused to be made the place known by the name of Gomatha (गोमठ).....(V. 9) This auspicious Gomatha (गोमठ) was caused to be made in the beautiful town of Batihadim (बटिहाड़िम). (It is) a shelter to all beings like another Kailasa.

Lepel H. Griffin[28] writes that founder of Barar clan Rao Barar had two sons, Rao Paur and Rao Dhul, the younger of whom is the ancestor of the Raja of Faridkot, and of the Barar tribe, which holds almost the whole of the districts of Mari, Mudki and Muktsar, Buchan, Mehraj, Sultan Khan and Bhadour in the Firozpur district, the whole of Faridkot, and many villages in Pattiala, Nabha, Jhumba and Malod. The two brothers quarreled, and the elder, Rao Paur, being worsted, fell into great poverty, in which his family remained for several generations, till Rao Sanghar restored their fortunes. {Rao Barar → Rao Paur (+ Rao Dhul) → Rao Bairath → Kai → Bao → Rao Sanghar → Bariam (d.1560)}
If we assume 25 years as a period of one generation Kai must have been present around 1485 AD.
  • Kharap (खरप)/Kharab (खरब) (Jat clan) = Kharapara (खरपर). Kharapara (खरपर) is mentioned in Batihagarh stone Inscription of the Vikrama Year 1385 (1328 AD)[31] states that Jallala was the representative of Hisamuddin, son of Julachi, who was appointed Commander of the Kharapara armies and Governor of Chedi country by Sultan Mahmud of Yoginipura or Delhi. This Mahmud must be Nasiruddin Mahmud of the Slave dynasty who reigned between 1246 and 1266 A.D. It was in 1251 that he conquered Chanderi and Malava and appointed a Governor there.[32] The mention of Kharapara armies gives importance to this record. They are apparently identical with the Kharaparikas of Samudragupta's inscription on the Allahabad pillar. They must have been a powerful tribe to deserve mention by that great Emperor in the 4th Century A.D. The record is dated in the Vikrama year corresponding to 1328 A.D. [33] 1328 A.D. is the year when The Mongols invade India. Batiagadh (बटियागढ़) is an ancient historical town and tahsil in Damoh District of Madhya Pradesh. It is site of many Sati pillar and other important inscriptions.
  • Kundal (कुण्डल) (Jat clan) → Kundalpur (कुंडलपुर) is a town in Patera tahsil of Damoh district in Madhya Pradesh, India. It is a historical pilgrimage site for Jains in India. Author (Laxman Burdak) visited it on 26.12.1991. (74) Kundalpur Stone Inscription 1700 AD.[45] and (111) Kundalpur Temple Inscriptions of 1700 AD[46] is an inscription of 24 lines put up during the reign of Maharajadhiraja Sri Chhatra Sala (the well-known Bundela Chief of Panna). It records that a Jaina Brahmachari named Nemichandra repaired the temple at Mandaratila with the proceeds of his begging in Samvat 1757, Magha badi 15 Somavasare, corresponding to Monday the 31st December 1700 A.D. It shows that old name of Kundalpur was Mandara-tila (मन्दर-टीला) which literally means a hillock with a temple.
