Paramara
The Paramara (also known as Panwar, Punwar and Parmar) are a tribe in North India who claim descent from the mythological Agnivansha dynasty and are one of the fourteen Garasia lineages, all of which claim descent from the Rajputs.
== Ethnographic classification ==
Denzil Ibbetson, an administrator of the British Raj, classified the Paramara as a tribe rather than as a caste. He believed, like Nesfield, that the society of the Northwest Frontier Province and Punjab Province in British India did not permit the rigid imposition of an administratively-defined caste construct as his colleague, Herbert Hope Risley preferred. According to Ibbetson, society in Punjab was less governed by ideas of caste based on varna and instead was more open and fluid. Tribes, which he considered to be kin-based groups that dominated small areas, were the dominant feature of rural life. Caste designators, such as Jat and Rajput, were status-based titles to which any tribe that rose to social prominence could lay a claim, and which could be dismissed by their peers if they declined. Susan Bayly, a modern anthropologist, considers him to have had "a high degree of accuracy in his observations of Punjab society ... ()n his writings we really do see the beginnings of modern, regionally based Indian anthropology."
