Jethwa

'Jethwa (or Jethva, Jaitwa, Jethi or Kamari, Camari,"'Kam(a)r'" is a Rajput clan that claim descent from Makardhwaja, son of Hanuman, who appears in the Hindu epic Ramayana. They are a branch of the Suryavanshi Rajput clan and are one of the oldest clans found in Rajput history.

8th-century Muslim governors of Sindh repeatedly sent naval armed ships to conquer the western and southern coast of Gujarat, which were repeatedly repulsed by the Saindhavas who called themselves "masters of the Western sea" (apara-samudr-ddhipati). It has been suggested that the Saindhava ruling family is now represented by the Jethwa/Kam(a)r Rajputs.

The Jethwa/ Kam(a)r may have a close connection with Mer people since time immemorial.

Jethwas seem to have entered India from the north-west; that is, from Sindh and Kutch to Saurashtra in the 9th century AD. They had capitals starting at Morvi in 900 AD, then changing over time to Shrinagar, Dhank, Chhaya, Ghumli, Ranpur and lastly to Porbandar (from 1685 till 1947). They were the first rulers of the Saurashtra area of Western Gujarat and are the oldest ruling clan of the peninsula.

Morvi was earlier known as Mayurpuri, named after its founder the Jethwa ruler Mayur-dhwaja. They spread further westward and captured Dwarka from Chawdas moved further and established the towns of Nagnah, Ghumli, Bhanvad, Chhaya, Dhank, Laodhva, Ranpur with colonies at Miani and Shrinagar on the coast. During the time of Mahmud of Ghazni, the Jethwas controlled all the west and north of the Kathiawar.
