Tribe Rathwa Bhil
Geography West India

The Rathwa derive their name from the word rathbistar, which means an inhabitant of a forest or hilly region. The Rathwa tribes are known as skilled archers. Their communal belief is that they came to the Gujarat area in the Middle Ages from what is now known as Madhya Pradesh. Rathwa culture is at its most pure in the remote hilly areas of Chhota Udaipur, where most are concentrated, and becomes more diluted elsewhere.
