Nainsi ri Khyat (or 'Khyat of Nainsi') is a late 17th-century Marwari & Dingal[1] text chronicling the history of Marwar. Its author Muhnot Nainsi, an official of Marwar State, based the Khyat (or chronicle) on the Charan accounts and the traditional Rajasthani Vat(or bat) as well as local administrative records.[2]Nainsi-ri-Khyat is considered to be the most prominent of khyats.[1] The Khyat contains a collection of bats as well as kavitts, dohas, and vanshavallis (genealogies).[3]
The Khyat includes a comprehensive account of the genealogies and histories of the various ruling dynasties in the regions of Rajasthan and Gujarat including Marwar, Mewar, Jaisalmer, Sirohi, Amer, Dhundhar, Kutch, Gujarat, Tharparkar, and Saurashtra. The histories of the Chauhans, Rathores, Kachhwahas and Bhatis are dealt with in great detail. The Khyat extensively mentions the battles fought and men who died fighting; along with the names of forts, towns, hills and rivers.[1]
The present day Nainsi ri Khyat is based on the 1843 version by Panna Vithu, who rediscovered the lost text and updated it with the information & events of the 18th & 19th century.[4]
