The Kamaria clan claims descent from Kamalnayan, an Ahir king from the [[Mahabharata]] era.
In the Braj region, the Kamaria and other subdivisions of Ahirs were gradually absorbed into the Nandvanshi category of landlords and into the Yaduvanshi subdivision as a consequence of British so-called "official" ethnographies and racial theories.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/The_Vernacularisation_of_Democracy/sOYJEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=lucia+michelutti&printsec=frontcover|title=The Vernacularisation of Democracy: Politics, Caste and Religion in India|last=Michelutti|first=Lucia|date=2020-11-29|publisher=Taylor & Francis|isbn=978-1-000-08400-9|language=en}}</ref>
