Jhamar The Jhamar are a Hindu caste found in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India. They are also known as Jhaunwar.〔People of India Uttar Pradesh Volume XLII Part Two edited by A Hasan & J C Das pages 633 to 637 Manohar Publications〕 == Origin == The Jhamar are an occupational Hindu caste traditionally associated with basket makers. According to some traditions, the word Jhamar is a corruption of the Hindi word ''jhaua'', which means a basket. The Jhamar themselves claim to be Lodhas, who took up the occupation of basket making. Over time this change of occupation led to the formation of a distinct community. The Jhamar are involved in the making of baskets from the twigs of the Arhar plant. They are a small community, found mainly in the districts of Barabanki, Lucknow and Unnao. The Jhamar speak Awadhi among themselves and Hindi with outsiders.〔People of India Uttar Pradesh Volume XLII Part Two edited by A Hasan & J C Das pages 633 to 637 Manohar Publications〕
