describe the characteristics of the medieval rajput men and women

Dear student,

The Rajput men of medieval period were courageous and valiant. They were brave warriors who fought many great battles. The ministers, officials, feudal chiefs belonged to the upper class  and were subjected to  the privileges to accumulate wealth .They were  fearless, egoistic and  loyal to their clan who gave shelter to the refugees and their foes.

The Rajput women were under strict laws. They were entitled to ‘Swayamvar’ type of marriage. They were victims of  Infanticide and  child marriage. They were  expected  to follow higher ideals and esteem for men in society. They sacrificed themselves along with the dead bodies of their husbands.   

Regards.
