I have always wondered what is the origin of the jauhar practice, its so terrible. In it we see the besieged populace strongly believe a lack of mercy from the invading force. Are there any instance of jauhar other than against the Muslims. I distinctly remember one instance of a Northwestern tribe doing the same against Alexander's army.

Also what is the exact meaning of the word Hammir or Hamvira.
