<br />
== Origin ==<br />
<br />
The Bargi claim descent from the [[Bargala clan|Bargala]] [[Rajput]]s, and their historic homeland is the ancient region of [[Braj|Braj Desa]], which now forms parts of [[Mathura District|Mathura]] and [[Agra District|Agra]] districts of Uttar Pradesh and the districts of [[Bharatpur District|Bharatpur]] and [[Dholpur District|Dholpur]] in [[Rajasthan]]. The Bargi have now spread to [[Jaipur District]] as well, and they speak [[Braj Bhasha]], although many in Rajasthan now understand [[Rajasthani language|Rajasthani]].<ref name="People of India"/><br />
<br />
== Present circumstance ==<br />
<br />
The Bargi are strictly [[endogamy|Endogamous]], and practice clan [[exogamy]]. They are further divided into fifty two clans, each of these clans have their tribal goddess. <br />
<br />
Historically, the Bargi of [[Bharatpur State|Bharatpur]] and [[Dholpur (princely state)|Dholpur]] states served as soldiers in the state army, with agriculture being an important secondary occupation. Their customs are similar to other neighbouring Hindu peasant castes such as the [[Ahir]], [[Jat]]s and [[Gurjar|Gujars]].<br />
