# List of Ranas of Mewar

The Sisodia clan of Mewar, also called the "House of Mewar", is a Rajput clan founded in 1325-1326 that ruled the Kingdom of Mewar, later called the Udaipur State under the British Raj. The dynasty traces its ancestry back to Rahapa, a son of the Guhila king Ranasimha. Hammir Singh, a scion of this branch family of the Guhilas, re-established the Kingdom of Mewar after defeating the Tughluq sultans of Delhi.
