From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Nambiyar" redirects here. For the river in Tamil Nadu, see
Nambiyar River.
Ethnic group
Nambiār, also known as Nambiyār, is a sub-group of the Indian Nair caste. Many were jenmi landlords in the Malabar region.[1][2]
In earlier days, Nambiar women, like most women of Nair clans of North Malabar (present-day Kannur, Kasaragod, Wayanad districts) would not marry Nair men of South Malabar (present-day Kozhikode, Malappuram, Palakkad, Thrissur districts).[2][3]
