The Nagas of Ancient India

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- In this video, I am going to talk about the Nagas of Ancient India. Historians do not know who these Nagas were and what was their origin. What we do know is that the Nagas emerged as an important power after the fall of the Kushanas. In this video, I talk about these Nagas who emerged after the decline of the Kushanas. I also talk about the different theories that are given by scholars about the Nagas and their origin.

Nagas were deployed not only in North India and Central India but also in South India. The Nair(derived from the word of 'Nagar')community in Kerala is also the successor of the Naga clan. Naga worship follows in all Nair families. Every Nair house has a place of naga worship called 'kaavu'.

Great video. I've a request. I get confused whenever I read ancient Indian history bcz of timelines and so many empires. Can you please make a 20-25min video explaining the timeline and other important points to remember while reading ancient history?
Yes every video should begin with a quick timeline of when exactly the events in the video happen with reference to other important events in Indian history such as death of Buddha, Ashok’s war with Kaling, Samudragupta’s conquest of Gujarat, Building of Kailash Temple in Ellora etc. Also the year being discussed could be shown in some corner of the screen.
Thanks for the suggestion. Will keep this mind in my next video. I am also planning to make a overview video on the developments in the Post Mauryan India. Will remember to add Timeline. Thanks again.
@@JayVardhanSingh what you do is great work man 👍
@@JayVardhanSingh Also try to make the timeline pictorial instead of explaining in words. Take UsefulCharts, Khan Academy channels as an inspiration/reference. A mix of maps and timelines would be perfect. More work, I know, but would improve the information quality in your videos. 👍
@@kraut1982 Gujarat was conquered by Chandragupta II Vikramaditya after defeating the Sakas.
There was also Nagas of Vindyatabi led by Satrubhanja. In his Asanpat inscription he talks about all Naga clans united to defeat the last Kushans.
Tribhuvana Mahadevi is also mentioned to be of the Naga dynasty.

In Maharashtra our mahar caste used to use suffix naka after name which was misinterpretation of naga. It was used till 1956 when ambedkar converted to buddhism with lakhs of mahar
didn't know that, thanks for the information
Wasn't ambedkar british stooge
@@suchithraraghavan5335 indeed such a foolish would be raised by mostly savarnas. 🤦♂️
Ambedkar never worked shoulder to shoulder with British like savarkar.
Ambedkar was so much busy for empowering the downtroddens for whom no other indian savarna leader fought for like ambedkar.
While all other leaders were busy freedom of india, ambedkar was indulged in for uplifting downtroddens.
You can surely say that savarkar was stooge of britishers. How savarkar begged to british. And how savarkar provided information to Britishers of freedom fighters like nana patil.

Great Video !!! Detailed Knowledge presented simply and beautifully. My utmost cheers to your content 👍🏼.
Thanks Bhai
Another theory tells us that, the nagas were of Ethiopian origin who reached India beofore the Iranian farmers & PIE. Please do look into it. I find it very interesting.
Dude what the hell 😂😂
how they came ? via sea or land ? But no genetic relation between ethopians and indians ..but few south indians look like ethopians
I am from the Bais Kshatriya community, according to our legend , at the time of Mahapadma Nanda, our clan displaced and moved towards western India and we were given shelter by Naga's. Hence till today every Bais Kshatriya consider every Naag/snakes his brother and we don't kill the Naga's.
Hi I'm bais as well.
I heard this from my grandfather as well
Are there any literary sources to this claim
I'm interested in reading them
Thank you in advance
According to my family oral history bais were displaced from vaishali hence the name
Is it actually true?
@@GargiSingh-op2je Yes , it's oral tradition, there is some people written the baus vansavali in Raebareli, you can search for that. It's hypothised that , Bais word comes from VAISALAK, which Kshatriya of vaisali called themselves.
@@VigrahRaj thank you sir
Ancient Mahabharat also spoke about Takshak,Vasuki,Kaliya Naag regimes,Janmejay & host of others.
Sanskrit meaning of Naag are people considered dwelling in Nagas ie Mountains...Naag king Vasuki is also mentioned in Rugvedic Samudramanthan around Meru mountain.
In our western Uttrakhand, there were some villages who used to pray Naag devta as their isht devta and have temples also. I always think why they are so different in religious aspect.
There were Naga rulers in Odisha region as mentioned in Asanpat inscription, in Mayurbhanj odisha
The Kings of Ratu(in Ranchi District of Jharkhand) also consider themselves as Nagvanshis.
Can you do a video on Nanda Dynasty and Chandragupta conquest of it?

Hello Mr. Singh, I'm sorry this isn't relevant to the video but I've always wondered if there were any henotheistic (choosing one god as the superior while acknowledging the existence of other gods) conflicts in India. With Hinduism being so old and so continuous in the subcontinent, has there ever been any events of militant henotheism?
In south india during the time of cholas some Minor conflicts took place , you and read about 63 nayanars to know about conflicts regarding sects
There were no major conflicts, only minor ones.
Good of your choice, keep it up sir.
I was wondering what your credentials are. Are you a university student/prof in the subject?
Very curious, as your work deals in subjects that are not at all beginner level.
Please let me know. Ty
I am doing PhD in Ancient Indian History.
@@JayVardhanSingh Amazing. Good luck bro
thank you
Great video, though can you please shed some light on the myth about parts of coastal karnataka, goa and kerala that claim to be land claimed from naga's of the sea by parashuram. Do you think this myth is based on northern aryan expansion to deep south? Snake worship particularly of snake stones and sacred groves has been part of tradition that still thrives today, there is also the fact that krishnadevaraya of vijayanagar and modern bunts also claim descent from nagavanshi kshatriyas, So was there a later southern migration of the Nagas? or were they southerners who expanded North?
Thank you.
I know about the myth but I don't think there's any connection with the movement of Aryans.
Similar attempts have been made by some historians to interpret the story of Lord Krishna overcoming the Snake Kaliya.
On the question of Naga worship, it is common in different parts of India. So it is hard to say which region influenced which region.
I hope I have answered your question.
@@JayVardhanSingh Yes it did, thank you
@@kinggengar3865 , here in our Uttrakhand there are few villages who had Naag as their isht dev. And temples too.
Nice video. Any relation to Snakes or Cobras mentioned in Indian lore? Perhpas they were snake worshippers that became depicted as snakes.
Thank you. It could be but I doubt there were any such associations.
Definitely see shri m on this topic. As the modern day kshatriyas lost the abilities of their forefathars as described in mahabharat ramayan and puranas due to degradation in kaliyuga similarly nagas descendents also degraded in their abilities.
I have question, what is the connection between nagas of padmavati and the nagas I.e snake Deities? Would be interesting to know who introduced the snake deity religious concept.
Some historians have tried to argue that the Nagas were of different race/ethnicities. But I don't think we have that kind of evidence to prove this was the case. I think that we can't say for sure what type of connection that existed between the Nagas and the Naga cult.
@@JayVardhanSingh thank you for your answer and reply, much appreciated. Even I came across many theories one of those theories being an ethiopian origin. Because snake worship existed in Ethiopia (among the Cushites) and Southern Arabia ( among the ancient and middle ancient Arabs). Some historians say that, since there has been some trade relations between, Indians, arabs and the Cushitic speaking people of ancient horn of Africa these cultures must have had some cultural influences with each other.
@@somalicorner arya and nagas both originated from India .
Nice information about Naga from encint India thanks.
thank you
please brother you seem super prepared and full of knowledge,can you tell me a name of a reptilian god that i can worship ? I already worship Lord Shiva and he may be a naga,for sure he is very close to them,but is there a specific nag god,like the most powerful and illuminated one that you know the name of ?
Sheshnag is the king of all nagas as per hindu scriptures so you worship him
There is one naag . The Manas putri of Shiva called MANASA . She is the goddess of snakes and is widely worshipped.

Interesting enough, In Ancient Egypt you find the hieroglyph for King is called Naga. On the various sculptures and engravings in Ancient Egypt the Kings were mostly crowned with serpents and or cobras. The adorned kings represented a mastery of the kundalini energy on their heads adorned with the cobras. Nagast in Ethiopia also mean King. The Ethiopian Epic, Kebra Nagast, translates to The Glory of the Kings. To deny the Nagas or Indian their African origin is the same as denying the Ancient Egyptians' African origins. Dig Deeper.
African origin? Give me a break.
Lord Buddha was a Shakya, but 1. Nagvanshi people (which are currently Mahar community in Maharashtra) accepted the Lord Buddha's Dhamma n always kept protecting & spreading Dhamma in their rule, 2. thats why snake is carved behind every buddha sculpture to show that Nagas are the protector of buddha n dhamma. 3. In Maharashtra there is a festival called NagPanchami of worshiping Snake, 4. the Cities Nagpur, Nashik, Nagda are the Cities of Nagas or Naglok (Mahar), 5. Mahar community used to keep Nak word after their first name just like SidNak, RayNak.
Source whatsapp university 🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓
1) nag panchami celebrate all across the india not only Maharashtra Or mahar community
2) mahar are the protector of Buddhism so naga is placed behind buddha😅😅😅 whatsapp university knowledge. Then tell me why this type of naga behind buddha present in Nepal, Myanmar, combodia, Thailand where there is no mahar caste. Or no Maharashtraian second thing naga behind God find in hindu God, jain God and in buddhism this show that due to influence of hinduism buddha and jain religion adopted naga. Why I say due to influence of hinduism because there are enough evidence than any religion in which mention about naga like puran, mahabharat, ramayan Or vedas, like seshnag, vasuki etc.
3) another whatsapp university knowledge proof word start from "" NAG""" Doesn't represent nagvanshi understand. If u have any proof or historical evidence like scripture, traveller book, temple Or engraved in any thing . Idiot
I am doing master in history so don't teach me history understand idiot.

Wow keep bringing up such gems! Never new this dynasty in central India, thought the Nagas were located in Kashmir that is why the later Karkota dynasty. But it does make sense for snakes to be in a tropical -subtropical environment. So the original Nagas may very well be from central India.
Any idea if the Nagas of NE have any similarities or they are totally unrelated?
No idea about the Nagas of modern NE
The Nagas of NE are not related at all. They are Tibeto Burman animists tribals who never had a kingdom or have any cities. They were called Nagas by Assamese because they were clothed scantily. ( Nanga -> Naga).
One correction Bimbisara is from Haryanka dynasty whose son was Ajatashatru , they are present at the time of lord Buddha . Shishunaga dynasty comes after Haryanka dynasty before Maurya dynasty . But you are right that Nagas are a very ancient people .....
It was in Ashwaghosha's Buddhacharita we find that it is mentioned that Bimbisara belonged to the Haryanka. But the Puranas tell us a different story. According to the Puranas, Bimbisara belonged to the dynasty of Shishunaga. This dynasty got its name from a king of Varanasi whose name was Shishunaga. The Shishunaga which you're talking about was a later king.

I just had a dream about madhavpur n nagas n i was searching this link together tht wht is link between there. I found ur this video here 🙂 yeah bt naga's clain were extended Frm north to south,east tk west. Cz in my dream i listened vry clearly abt madhavpur place tht was forest area in tht ancient time. Bt in today's time wheere is madhavpur are?
I think you must be from naga clan. And sometimes our ancestors hint us with various means and dream is very common among these methods.
Who was the Takshak who killed Jaymanajay?
There is a theory of Gautama buddha belonged to ethnic Naga. Have you heard of this ?
The Buddha himself is attested in multiple Buddhist texts to having proudly stated he's an Ikshwaku & descended from the same ancient tribe as Lord Ram.
In fact there's a tragic story associated to the virtual extermination of the Buddha's tribe during his own lifetime which he tried his best to prevent but couldn't. Search for Vidudahba / Virudhaka & his father Prasenjit / Pasenadi of Kosala for more info, if you're interested.

Great video btw. In fact there are Nagvanshi Rajputs in Bihar, Jharkhand & Odisha too. What exactly is their connection if any to the historical Naga dynasties is unknown.
Just as what's the connection of these historical Nagas to the Nagas mentioned in the Mahabharata is unknown.
Incidentally, the Nagas in the Mahabharata are said to have inhibited the same areas as the Kurus. In fact the entire conflict between Parikshit & Takshaka may have been an inter generational blood feud as the Nagas were driven out of Khandava Prastha by the Pandava hero Arjuna .
The land of Ahichhatra itself denotes association to the Nagas. Naga worshipers were mentioned in the Rg Veda & not in a flattering light too.
Have u read naval viyogis book on nagas ??
