DESCRIPTION

Rajput Russian clan These peasants are residents of Jumnootri, or the source of the Jumna, and belong by cast to a Rajpoot race known as the Russia clan. their pretensions to the appellation is, however, very doubtful. there is a great difference between the types of features of the lower Rajpoot tribes and the higher ; the letter is unmistakably Aryan, while the lower, as shown in the representation, is nearly allied to the aboriginal.
