Hammiradeva (IAST: Hammīra-deva; c. 1283 – 10 July 1301), also known as Hammir Dev Chauhan in vernacular legends, was the last ruler of Ranasthambhpura (Ranthambore) from the Chahamana dynasty. He is popularly known for the resistance against the Khalji expansion in the Rajputana region.
Hammiradeva ruled a kingdom centred around Ranthambore in present-day Rajasthan, India. In the 1280s, he raided several neighbouring kingdoms, which ultimately left him without allies. In the 1290s, he successfully defended his kingdom against Jalaluddin Khalji of the Delhi Sultanate. In 1299, he gave asylum to some Mongol rebels from Delhi, which prompted Jalaluddin's successor Alauddin Khalji to invade his kingdom. Hammira achieved some successes against Alauddin's generals Ulugh Khan and Nusrat Khan, but he was ultimately defeated and killed in 1301 after a long siege.
