Meo (ethnic group)
Meo (pronounced May-o & Mev) (also called Mewati) is a Muslim Meena from North-Western India, particularly in and around Mewat that includes Mewat district of Haryana and parts of adjacent Alwar and Bharatpur districts in Rajasthan. Meos speak Mewati, a language of the Indo-Aryan language family.
==History and origin==
Meos are inhabitants of Mewat, a region that consists of Mewat district of Haryana and some parts of adjoining Alwar and Bharatpur districts of Rajasthan and western Uttar Pradesh, where the Meos have lived for a millennium. They were Hindu Rajputs who converted to Islam between 12th and 17th century,〔(Textuality and Inter-textuality in the Mahabharata: Myth, Meaning and Metamorphosis by Pradeep Trikha Pg. 84 )〕〔(Emerging Social Science Concerns: Festschrift in Honour of Professor Yogesh Atal by Surendra K Gupta pg.365 )〕 until as late as Aurangzeb's rule but they have maintained their age-old distinctive cultural identity until today. They have shared this region with a number of other Muslim Rajput communities, such as Khanzada, Qaimkhani and Malkana.〔People of India Rajasthan Volume XXXVIII Part Two edited by B.K Lavania, D.
