History
Jats and Meds have been the oldest occupants of Sind. The first Persian account of the 11th century Mujmat ut-Tawarikh (1026), originally an ancient work in Sanskrit, mentions Jats and Meds as the ancient tribe of Sind and calls them the descendants of Ham, the son of Noah. [7] [8]
Hukum Singh Panwar[9] quotes different versions of many Indian place and tribal names given by E. Pococke in his book, 'India in Greece'.
Hamman = Hammon = Ham (Sam or Shyam),[10]
