History

Bhim Singh Dahiya [6] writes:

(22) Mihir: This clan is equated with the Maitraka clan of Vallabhi. Fleet held that Bhattaraka Maitraka belonged to a sun-worshipping people of foreign region. So far he is right. But he further suggested that Toramana and Mihiragula were from the Mihir clan. This view has been supported by others; But Toramana and Mihiragula have expressly stated on their coins that their clan was Jauvala and, therefore, they cannot belong to the Mihira clan, which is a separate clan of the Jats, and Mehrauli is named after them.
