The Chāhamānas are solar race Rajputs as shown in Volume II ( p. 14. ) and as even the Pṛthvīrāja-Vijaya and Hammīra Kāvyas declare. The idea that they are Agnikulas is a later fiction which has been exploded from stone records, as even Pandit Gaurishankar believes. But it is strange that he looks upon the Chāhamānas as lunar race Kshatriyas ( See his edition of Tod's Rājastan in Hindi ). This is probably a misprint.
