According to some traditions, the Mohana are descendents of the Scythian Medes, who lived on the banks of the Indus some thousand years ago. They are one of the Sindhi tribes mentioned in the Chachnama, and together with the Lohana, Soomra and Samma are considered to be the original inhabitants of Sindh.〔Gazetteer of the province of Sind by Edward H Aitken 1907 pages 177 to 178〕 The Mohana are not only fishermen, but sailors and boatmen as well. Many are employed on fishing trawlers in Karachi. They have many sub-divisions, the main ones being the Karachia and Laria. Each sub-division inter marries, although there is a preference in marrying close kin. They also have a close relationship with the Mallaah community of coastal Sindh, and the two groups often intermarry.〔Gazetteer of the province of Sind by Edward H Aitken 1907 pages 177 to 178〕
