Roudh (Indo Aryan People) are Bhatra Sikhs who came to India from Rhode Island in Alexander The Great's Army During the invasion of India.[citation needed]
The historical evidence that supports this theory is that the Roudh surname used to be spelled Rhode (as in the Isle of Rhodes; part of the Greek archipelago) which indicates a link to our, outside of India origins, to Greece. Secondly we know that Alexander got as far as Punjab and that's where the majority of us Roudh Bhatra's lived until partition. Also many of those he brought with him in his army decided to stay in India as the journey back home was too exhaustive. Furthermore as Rhode People began to mix with the Indian People They took on some of their customs and the Orginal name Rhode due to lack of a precise spelling later on came to be known as Roudh when they became Bhata Sikhs. Due to the unorganised times in those days no one thought it of signifigance to record this bit of history.
