Rana Hammir (1314–78), or Hammir, was a 14th-century Hindu Rajput ruler of Mewar in present-day Rajasthan, India. Following an invasion by the Delhi sultanate at the turn of the 13th century, the ruling Guhila dynasty had been displaced from Mewar. Hammir Singh, who was a scion of the cadet branch of the Guhila dynasty, regained control of the region, re-established the dynasty after defeating the Tughlaq dynasty, and captured present-day Rajasthan from Muslim forces of delhi and became the first of his dynasty to use the royal title 'Rana' instead of 'Rawal' . Hammir also became the progenitor of the Sisodia clan, a branch of the Guhila dynasty, to which every succeeding Maharana of Mewar has belonged. Mewar during Rana Hammirs reign, was one of the few ethnic Indian states that had withstood the Turkic invasions. According to John Darwin "Only in Mewar and in Vijaynagar had Hindu states withstood the deluge".
He built the Annapoorna Mata temple located in the Chittor Fort in Chittorgarh, Rajasthan.
