The Roman Catholic Kshatriya is a caste among the Goan and Mangalorean Catholics, of modern-day descendants of Goan Kshatriya and Vaishya converts to Roman Catholicism.〔〔 They are respectively known as ''Chardo'' in the Goan Catholic dialects of Konkani (Devanagari: चारड्डो) and ''Charodi'' (Kannada: ಚರೋಡಿ; ''Tsāroḍi''), in the Mangalorean Catholic dialect of Konkani. They are an endogamous group and have traditionally avoided inter-marriage with Catholics of other castes. ==Etymology== The precise etymology of the word ''Chardo'' is unclear. The two most probable explanations are as follows:〔 * The roots of this Konkani word probably lies in the Prakrit word ''Chavada'', which the name of a tribe of warriors who migrated to Goa from Saurashtra in the 7th and 8th centuries, after their kingdom was destroyed by the Arabs in 740 AD. * Another explanation given by historian B.D. Satoskar is that the Konkani word comes from the Sanskrit word ''Chatur-rathi'' or the Prakrit ''Chau-radi'', which literally means "the ones who ride a chariot yoked with four horses".〔
