The Leva Patel (or Leuva Patel or Leva Patil) ((グジャラート語: લેવા પટેલ); (マラーティー語:लेवा पाटील)) is a caste community found in India. The origin of Leva (at an essential time) came from defense duty (Kshatra Karma). At other times, it meant agriculture (Krushi Karma) and hence from then they were treated as warriors Kshatriya. The sect (of which is the origin from 'Lava') is called Leva. The lineage of "Ikshwanku" and "Suryavanshi" living in Ayodhya, established a new city in Punjab. The name Lahore came from Lava. At present, Lahore (which is on the bank of Ravi) is in Pakistan. This is the original place of the Lava sect. The Lava sect (which conquered that part of Punjab) is now the Leva Region. The people who live there are called the Leva. According to some authorities, Lava was born on the 40th generation of Survansh. Other authorities believed that Lava was born to Sita from Ram in the 66th generation of Survansh. The region of Punjab Leva Pradesh (of the Lava sect) was conquered by the Gurjars. This part is now known as 'Gujrat Subha'. The Leva Gurjars and Leva Kurmees living in Saurashtra came from this area. 55 generations lived there after Lava existed. In 144 A.D., these Levas came from Punjab-Gujrat and Leva Province into Saurashtra, and therefore Saurashtra got the name of Gujrat. They left the Punjab in 78 B.C. The community is predominantly found in the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra. In Gujarat, they are settled in and around the districts of Kutch, Kathiawad, Surat, Navsari, and Valsad. In Maharashtra, they are settled in the western region called as Khandesh (Cities include Jalgaon, Bhusawal, Nashik, Pune, and Mumbai) and the eastern region called as Vidarbha (Cities include Buldhana, Akola, Amaravati, and Nagpur). Also known as Maratha Leuva Kunbi/Patil in these areas. ==References== 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「Leva Patel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
