The Bhil Meena (also spelled Bhil Mina) are a tribal group found in the state of Rajasthan, India. In ancient times, Rajasthan was ruled by a dynasty of Meenas which had the emblem of a fish like the Pandyan kingdom of the south. The name Mina is derived from ''Meen'' 〔〔 〕〔 〕 and the Minas claim descent from the Matsya avatar of God.〔 〕〔 〕〔 〕〔 〕 The Matsya avatar takes place to save the pious and the first man, Manu. According to some traditions, the Bhil Meenas are said to be descended from those Meenas and Rajputs who, in the wars between their own tribes or with Muslims, were compelled to quit their native home and seek refuge in the vastness of Rajputana, where they formed alliances with the aboriginal families and established tribe. Mainly they are mixed tribe of tribal Meenas and Bhils. == Social status == , the Bhil Meenas were classified as a Scheduled Tribe under the Indian government's reservation program of positive discrimination. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bhil Meena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
