Laur, (also spelled Lava, Lavi or Lor) is a major clan of the Gurjar ethnic community of northern India.

Gurjars are divided into two groups in Gujarat and Rajasthan: the Khari and the Laur (or Lava). These two are further subdivided into a number of clans.

Background

Lava and Khari Gurjars are equal in status. However, Laur Gurjars typically regard themselves as inferior to Khari or Khadwa Gurjars, and thus sometimes disregard intermarriage.
