Malavas
The Malavas were an ancient Indian tribe, which initially lived in the present-day Punjab province in Pakistan, later migrated to the present-day Eastern Rajasthan state in India and finally settled in the present-day North-western Madhya Pradesh state in India, which is known as Malwa after them.〔Lahiri, Bela (1974). ''Indigenous States of Northern India (Circa 200 B.C. to 320 A.D.)'' , Calcutta: University of Calcutta, pp.262-78〕 They successfully maintained their tribal organisation till the time of Samudragupta.〔Law, B.C. (1973), ''Tribes in Ancient India'', Poona: Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, pp.60-65〕 The era, which later became known as the Vikrama Samvat is associated with the Malavas. Initially it was mentioned as the ''Krita'' era and then as the ''Malava'' era. Most probably this era was mentioned as the ''Vikrama'' era for the first time in the Dholpur stone inscription of Chahmana Chandamahasena in 898 CE.〔
==Origin==
According to the Mahabharata, the hundred sons of the Madra king Ashvapati, the father of Savitri were known as the ''Malava''s, after the name of their mother, Malavi.〔 Although Malavas are not actually mentioned by Panini, but his sutra V.3.117 mentions a number of tribes aa the ''ayudhajivi samgha''s (those who live by the profession of arms) and the ''Kashika'' includes the names of the Malavas and the Kshudrakas in this group of tribes. The Malavas are actually mentioned in the ''Mahabhashya'' (IV.1.68) of Patanjali.〔Law, B.C. (1973), ''Tribes in Ancient India'', Poona: Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, pp.60-65〕
