History
:
Ram Sarup Joon writes that Anu gotra is also well known. Anla, Onla,
Anlayam, Onra, Antawat etc are the gotras of the Ann dynasty found
amongst the Jats. There is reference to King Anlakh in the Mahabharat
(Sabha Parva). According to the census of 1911 the number of the
Jat belonging to this gotra was 87,000. They are found in Jullundur,
Hoshiarpur and Bikaner State. Only Jats are found in Jaipur State.
Ram
Swarup Joon writes.... According to Bhagwatdatta, Baluchis of (of
Balochistan) today are the descendants of Anu. Baluchya, Balhara,
Bal, Balan are Jat gotras.
Kak,
Kakarzai, Klock, Kukar, Khokar, Karskar Jats belong to the Anu Branch.
Thirty
thousand Baluchis in Makran were recognised as Jats.
Baluchis
of the Lomri region are described as Jats in their chronicles.
In
the Rig-Ved, there are references to the Kabul River of Afghanistan,
Gomal Valley, and rivers Ganga and Jamuna.
There
are also references to Kshatriya and the five branches of the Yayati
Dynasty.
Sumerian
mythology :
In Sumerian mythology and later for Assyrians and Babylonians, Anu
was a sky-god, the god of heaven, lord of constellations, king of
gods, spirits and demons, and dwelt in the highest heavenly regions.
He was called Anu by the Akkadians, rulers of Mesopotamia after
the conquest of Sumer in 2334 BCE by King Sargon of Akkad. By virtue
of being the first figure in a triad consisting of Anu, Bel and
Ea, Anu came to be regarded as the father and at first, king of
the gods. Anu is so prominently associated with the city of Uruk,
Biblical Erech in southern Babylonia that there are good reasons
for believing this place to have been the original seat of the Anu
cult. If this be correct, then the goddess Inanna (or Ishtar) of
Uruk may at one time have been his consort. Probably Uruk was the
country of Aulakh Jats.
