Those enumerated are harmless and industrious, and are found both in the desert and valley. There are besides these a few scattered families of ancient tribes \[322\], as the Sultana ³ and Khumra, of whose history we are ignorant, Johyas, Sindhals, and others, whose origin has already been noticed in the Annals of Marusthali. - [Previous: v3.c40.166](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c40.166) - [Next: v3.c40.168](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c40.168) - [Up: v3.c40](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c40) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c40.167](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c40.167) · Pramāṇa
