'''Sinsinwar''' is a gotra of [[Jats]] found in [[Rajasthan]] and [[Uttar Pradesh]] in [[India]]. Sinsinwars were the rulers of [[princely state]] [[Bharatpur]]. Before the formation of Bharatpur state the capital of Sinsinwars was at [[Sinsini]]. 

Sinsini earlier was known as 'Shoor saini' and its inhabitants were known as '[[Saur Sen]]'. The influence of Saur Sen people can be judged from the fact that the dialect of the entire north India at one time was known as '[[Saursaini]]'.

Shoor Sain people were [[Chandravansi]]. [[Lord Krishna]] was also born in [[vrishni]] branch of Chandravansh. A group of [[Yadava]]s was follower of [[Shiv]] and [[Vedic religion|Vedic]] God in [[Sindh]]. Some [[inscription]]s and coins of these people have been found in '[[Mohenjo Daro]]'.  ' Shiv Shani Sevi' words have been found engraved on one inscription. [[Yajur Veda]] mentions 'Shinay Swah'. 'Sini Isar' was found on one gold coin. [[Atharva Veda]] mentions 'Sinwali' for Sini God.

The above group of Yadavas came back from [[Sindh]] to [[Brij]] area and occupied [[Bayana]] in [[Bharatpur]] district. After some struggle the '[[Balai]]' inhabitants were forced by Shodeo and Saini rulers to move out of Brij land and thus they occupied large areas. 'Saur Saini' was changed to 'ShinShoor' or 'Sinsini' after their God 'Shin'. These people of Sinsini were called Sinsinwar. One of their groups moved to [[Sugrivgarh]] and they were known as 'Sugrivgadhia' or '[[Sogdians]]'.
