The various tribes of Rajasthan are:

Bhils The bow men of Rajasthan
Minas The militant defenders
Lohars The nomadic blacksmiths
Garasias The fallen Rajputs
Sahariyas The jungle dwellers



All the tribes share common traits which seem to link their past but it is the differences in their costumes and jewelry, their gods and deities and their seasonal fairs and festivals that sets one tribal sanctuary apart from another.
