Answer:
Rajput men were warriors; Rajput women practiced purdah
Explanation:
Rajput is derived from Sanskrit and means the son of a king. The term Rajput encompasses various clans, but commonly associated with warriorhood.
Rajputs were keen about their genealogy through vansh and kuls. The men adored their sword and their religious ritual included sacrificing a goat or buffalo during Navaratri.
The Rajput population lived in various areas of Gujarat, Haryana, Rajasthan, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Madhya Pradesh.
The Rajput women practiced the custom of purdah which caused seclusion. Only men belonging to the family can visit the women's quarters, others are excluded. The same applied to women as well. Daughters were taught obedience, modesty, and self-effacing sacrifice.
