Perhaps you are talking about the rajput of NW India.
The possibility of a mercenary Humakti clan twigs a memory from
anthropology
class. If I remember correctly there is/was a RW culture in India where
the
men are/were mercenary warriors who are/were away most of the time while
the
women stay at home and look after things. Might be a good analogy. What
was
their name though?
