How can that be?[/quote'] There has been some discussion that his ancestors from the father's side came from the Sissodia clan of Rajputs. Conversely, there have also been some articles saying that his forefathers came from the Hoysala clan in Karnataka. The term Maratha itself did not exist until Shivaji established his confederacy. What is for sure is that his constitution and appearance was very much like the people from the Raigad region.

Yes. I also think so based on whatever I have read. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Shivaji_was_a_rajput
Ya Shivaji was a Rajput , when the Brahmins refused to confer the Kshatriya status to Shivaji, then Shivaji called a notable Brahmin Gaga bhatt from Varanasi and he traced the genelogy of Shivaji to Sisodiya Rajputs of Mewar, and thus was proclaimed a Chatrapati.
In between, Is this you asking question on wiki?
