Gomat

Gomat (गोमत) is a Gotra of Jats.

Origin

Goman (गोमान्) or Gomanta (गोमन्त) was name of Raivataka Mountan where 18 tribes of Yadavas settled after they fled from Mathura out of fear of Jarasandha, the king of Magadha.^[1]

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)^[2].... (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.

Ram Sarup Joon^[3] writes that...about 70 Jat Gotras joined the Gujar force and started calling themselves Gujars. It is one of them.
