The area of [[Morena district|Morena]], [[Bhind district|Bhind]] and [[Gwalior district|Gwalior]] in northern [[Madhya Pradesh]] is referred to as "Tomarghar" meaning "Home of Tomars" due to its large population of Tomar.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://zeenews.india.com/news/madhya-pradesh/guns-rule-badlands-of-bhind-morena_889998.html |title=Guns rule 'badlands' of Bhind-Morena |work=Zeenews |access-date=2014-08-09}}</ref>

== History ==

The Tomar clan claim descent from [[Chandravanshi]] dynasty, naming the ''[[Mahabharata]]'' warrior [[Arjuna]] among their forebears.<ref>{{cite book |title=Islamization in Modern South Asia: Deobandi Reform and the Gujjar Response |first=David Emmanuel |last=Singh |publisher=Walter de Gruyter |year=2012 |isbn=9781614511854 |page=55 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=oscmJoix2IAC&pg=PA55}}</ref>

The earliest extant historical reference to the Tomaras (the [[Sanskrit]] form of "Tomar") occurs in the [[Pehowa]] inscription of the [[Gurjara-Pratihara]] king [[Mahendrapala I]] (r. c. 885-910 CE).{{sfn|Sailendra Nath Sen|1999|p=339}} This undated inscription suggests that the Tomara chief Gogga was a vassal of Mahendrapala I.{{sfn|Dilip Kumar Ganguly|1984|pp=116-117}}

During 9th-12th century, the Tomars of Delhi ruled parts of the present-day Uttar Pradesh madhya pradesh rajasthan [[Delhi]] and [[Haryana]].{{sfn|Upinder Singh|2008|p=571}}{{qn|date=August 2021}} Much of the information about this dynasty comes from bardic legends of little historical value, and therefore, the reconstruction of their history is difficult.{{sfn|D. C. Ganguly|1981|p=704}} According to the bardic tradition, the dynasty's founder Anangapal Tomar (that is Anangapala I Tomara) founded Delhi in 736 CE.{{sfn|Sailendra Nath Sen|1999|p=339}} However, the authenticity of this claim is doubtful.{{sfn|D. C. Ganguly|1981|p=704}} The bardic legends also state that the last Tomara king (also named Anangapal) passed on the throne of Delhi to his son-in-law [[Prithviraj Chauhan]]. This claim is also inaccurate: historical evidence shows that Prithviraj inherited Delhi from his father [[Someshvara (Chahamana dynasty)|Someshvara]].{{sfn|D. C. Ganguly|1981|p=704}} According to the [[Bijolia]] inscription of Someshvara, his brother [[Vigraharaja IV]] had captured Dhillika (Delhi) and Ashika (Hansi); he probably defeated a Tomara ruler.{{sfn|Dilip Kumar Ganguly|1984|p=117}}

Anangpal's grandson, [[Kosal Dev Singh]], is said{{by whom|date=August 2021}} to have established [[Kosli]] in 1193.<ref>{{cite book|author1=Sarban Singh|author2=Haryana (India). Gazetteers Organisation|title=Haryana State Gazetteer: Lacks special title|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=kYsMAQAAMAAJ|year=2004|publisher=Haryana Gazetteers Organisation, Revenue Dept.}}</ref>

The [[Tomaras of Gwalior]] ruled an area north of Gwalior known as the Tonwarghar tract. The most notable of these rulers was [[Man Singh Tomar]] (1486-1517).<ref>{{cite book |title=Naukar, Rajput, and Sepoy: The Ethnohistory of the Military Labour Market of Hindustan, 1450-1850 |first=Dirk H.
