Songara

Songara or Songira is the name of a branch of the Chauhan clan of Rajputs. Several dynasties belonging to this clan ruled small kingdoms and principalities in medieval India. These include the Chahamanas of Jalor, and the rulers of the Ambliara State. The Deora ruling family of the Sirohi State was also descended from the Chahamanas of Jalor.

Kirtipala, the first Chahamana ruler of Jalor ruled his domains from Suvarnagiri or Sonagiri, the hill on which Jalor Fort is located. Because of this, the branch to which he belonged came to be known as Sonagara or Songara. The Jalor branch ended with Kanhad Dev, who was defeated and killed by the forces of Alauddin Khilji
