Hi, Ashok,
I am of the firm opinion that Gurajjar word also have the word "Har" after Gurjar. That means that Gurjar+Har= Gurajjar, the lords of Gurjara Desa.
Har is very important word in History. Har means the Lord Mahadeva, the Shiva. All old Shiva temples were built by Gurjjars like SOMNATH temple at Prabhas Patan in Gujarat, and Maha Kaleshwar temple at Dhar, Malwa, the original place of rule of Gujjar Pratihar.
Pratihar also means Prithvi+Har ot Pirthihar.
All the old folksong of Gujjar females also end with the word "Hare". This is such a important word that Col. Todd also has written about it in his historical records.
Similarly the Varrajjar ( Bajjad who ruled Bajour and Varrjaristhan i,e, Vajirsthan, The Nagar ( The rulers of Nagarhar in present Afghanistan and Udaipur in India), The Tanwars ( Tin+ Har), Dor ( Do+ Har, Char+Har= Chahar, Lor= Loh+Har ( the Lords of Lohkot).
Later the othe Gujjar Gotras added having the word Rana like Harsana. The Harsh must certainlt be some place which was ruled by the Harshana Gujjars. Bhadana were rulers of Bhadanak and Khatana were the rulers of Khottan ( Present day in China).
Here Do, Teen and Char refers to lands depending on the yields in one calender year. Present day Bulandshahar and aligarh area was Dor, Present Haryana was Tinhar, and all Gujjar Tanwars inscription are from this place, like Pehowa inscription.
Present day Char+Har was Gujarat, the stronghold of Gujjar Chawras and the Gujjar Solankis and Gujjar Chauhans are certainly related to these Gujjar Chahars. The Distortions of Chahar today are Chad,Chabda,Chabdi,Chahad, Chawra etc.

Evidence of Gurjar Pratihar dynasty's rule found in north Gujarat 11 May 2009 ... Latest news, breaking news - Evidence of Gurjar Pratihar dynasty's rule found in north Gujarat. www.indianexpress.com/.../evidence-of-gurjar-pratihar-dynastys-rule.../457199/ - For the first time, the state archaeology department has found an evidence of Gurjar Pratihar dynasty’s rule in the state during a recent excavation at Vadnagar. The state Archaeology department has excavated a seal made of terracotta, which is an evidence of Gurjar rule over some parts of north Gujarat during the seventh century. According to the department, the terracotta seal is embossed with the image of Sri Naag Bhatt Putra (the son of Gurjar ruler Sri Nag Bhatt). Speaking to Newsline, Y S Rawat, the director of the state Archaeology department, said, “Earlier, there was a reference about the rule of Gurjar Pratihar in some scriptures. However, this could not be proved. The recently found seal has a Nandi bull and the writing in Brahmi script reading ‘Sri Naag Bhatt Putra’.” |

Some of the Gujjar Gotras are much older than the formation of Gujjar Pratihar Empire. These are following:
1. Kushana ( Kushan Emperors).
2. Poshwal. ( Kings of Purushpur, i,e,. present day Peshawar.
3. Kapisia. ( The rulers of kapisa, ( kabul).
4. Khatana ( The Rulers of Khotan).
Here is a 2nd. or 3rd. century historical record of Khatana Vijay Singh, the ruler of Afghanistan that time.
The first concrete evidence of an Iranian presence in the country is found in a document probably of the 3rd century, discovered by M. A. Stein at the site of Endere (facsimile in Stein, 1921, pl. xxxviii; transcription in Boyer and Senart, p. 249; tr. 1940, p. 137; cf. Emmerick, 1979, p. 168 and n. 7). It was written in a local Middle Indian dialect in Kharoṣṭhî script by Khotana maharaya rayatiraya hinajha Vij’ida Siṃha “General Vijida Simha, great king, king of kings of Khotan” in his tenth chuna (< Khot. kṣuṇa) “regnal year.” The Khotanese title hînâysa (pronounced hînâza, lit. “army leader”) is also attested in much later indigenous texts.

b]Rabatak (Afghanistan) inscription of Great Emperor Kaniska, a Gujjar of Kasana Gotra.[/b]
Translation by Mukherjee, B.N., "The Great Kushana Testament", Indian Museum Bulletin, Calcutta, 1995:[5]
1-3 ["The year one of Kanishka, the great deliverer, the righteous, the just, the autocrat, the god, worthy of worship, who has obtained the kingship from Nana and from all the gods, who has laid down (i.e. established) the year one as the gods pleased."
3-4
"And it was he who laid out (i.e. discontinued the use of) the Ionian speech and then placed the Arya (or Aryan) speech (i.e. replaced the use of Greek by the Aryan or Bactrian language)."
4-6
"In the year one, it has been proclaimed unto India, unto the whole realm of the governing class including Koonadeano (Kaundinya< Kundina) and the city of Ozeno (Ozene, Ujjain) and the city of Zageda (Saketa) and the city of Kozambo (Kausambi) and the city of Palabotro (Pataliputra) and so long unto (i.e. as far as) the city of Ziri-tambo (Sri-Champa)."
6-7
"Whichever rulers and the great householders there might have been, they submitted to the will of the king and all India submitted to the will of the king."
7-9
"The king Kanishka commanded Shapara (Shaphar), the master of the city, to make the Nana Sanctuary, which is called (i.e. known for having the availability of) external water (or water on the exterior or surface of the ground), in the plain of Kaeypa, for these deities - of whom are Ziri (Sri) Pharo (Farrah) and Omma."
9-9A
"To lead are the Lady Nana and the Lady Omma, Ahura Mazda, Mazdooana, Srosharda, who is called ... and Komaro (Kumara)and called Maaseno (Mahasena) and called Bizago (Visakha), Narasao and Miro (Mihara)."
10-11
"And he gave same (or likewise) order to make images of these deities who have been written above."
11-14
"And he ordered to make images and likenesses of these kings: for king Kujula Kadphises, for the great grandfather, and for this grandfather Saddashkana (Sadashkana), the Soma sacrifier, and for king V'ima Kadphises, for the father, and for himself (?), king Kanishka."
14-15
"Then, as the king of kings, the son of god, had commanded to do, Shaphara, the master of the city, made this sanctuary."
16-17
"Then, the master of the city, Shapara, and Nokonzoka led worship according to the royal command."
17-20
"These gods who are written here, then may ensure for the king of kings, Kanishka, the Kushana, for remaining for eternal time healthy., secure and victorious... and further ensure for the son of god also having authority over the whole of India from the year one to the year thousand and thousand."
20
"Until the sanctuary was founded in the year one, to (i.e. till) then the Great Arya year had been the fashion."
21
"...According to the royal command, Abimo, who is dear to the emperor, gave capital to Pophisho."
22
"...The great king gave (i.e. offered worship) to the deities."
