The Dodiya / Dodia are a Rajput clan found in the state of Rajasthan Gujarat and Saurashtra in India ==Origin== The Dodiya / Dodia are Agnivanshi Rajput, one of the most celebrated Chauhan branches and according to their traditions, they were based in and around Multan in Punjab (now in Pakistan) during 12th and 13th centuries, when they built a fort near Multan by the name of Rohtashgarh. In the 14th century the Dodiya / Dodia Rajputs migrated to Gujarat and established their kingdom around Girnar Junagadh. The first rajah of this state was Phul Singh Dodiya / Dodia, followed by Rawat Soorsinghji, Rawat Chandrabhansinghji, Rawat Krishnaji, Rawat Chalotji and Rawat Arjundasji. A small number of the Dodiya / Dodia migrated to Mewar accompanying the Rajmata of Mewar as an escort. The Dodiyas / Dodias proved their valour in various battles in the service of Mewar, including the Battle of Haldighati, and were rewarded with the jagir of Lava (later called Sardargarh). The Remainder of the Dodiya / Dodia Remain in Gujarat. The Dodia / Dodiya in Saurashtra were originally a clan of Rajputs without any political power and it appears that the whole clan was Rajputs. Clans without a political head would obviously be predisposed to lose their land and its fragmentation with unproductive expenditure must have hastened the process of decline. 〔The Rajputs of Saurashtra by Virbhadra Singhji Sangam Books〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dodiya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
