List Of The Brahman Warriors

In this post , I will list out the Brahman warriors while listing alot of unkown Brahmin commanders to the public. This thread is not to demean any community, but to inform others about mine

Various Hindu Texts like the "#Baudhayana" and #Kalhana's "#Rajatarangini" make note of Brahmins fighting wars and battles

Below, I have compiled a list of unkown Brahmin warriors and commanders to the general public.

1. #Prithvisena was a Brahmin officer in Kumaragupta (Gupta Emperor's) army. He was the chief of forces. His father, Harisena, was Chandragupta II Vikramaditya's minister:

2. #Skanda II was a Brahmin commander in Prithviraja III's army. He "killed the Turushkas continually" and helped out Hariraja in his rebellion. 

His ancestors, #Skanda I and #Sodha, were valiant ministers of Prithviraja's father, Someshavara Chauhan:

3. #Parkhu, or #Purushottoma_Pant was a Kumaoni Brahmin commander in the army of Rudra Chand. He is described as the "queller of the haughtiness of Doti (west Nepal)" and a learned scholar. He assisted Rudra Chand in many of his conquests and met his valiant end against Garhwal

7. #Guaravamisra was a minister of the Pala King, Narayanapala, and is said to have been a valiant warrior. Narayanapala was known to have reconquered Bihar from the Parihars, so it is likely that this Guaravamisra was instrumental in this
