Kshatriya is a division of the caste system about Rajput Jaat Gurjar in Hinduism. A kshatriya is a warrior, ruler or noble. Rajputs are universally considered as kshatriyas .
There are 3 lineages of Kshatriyas:-
- Suryavanshi (Solar Dynasty)
- Chandravanshi (Lunar Dynasty)
- Agnivanshi (Fire Dynasty)
However, there is one more lineage (not mentioned in any Puranas) - ‘’’Nagavanshi’’’ (snake-born), who claims descent from the Nagas.
