Among those clans holding the ''panch pallava'' as a devak, it is used ritually for marriages, funerals, and other important rites. These five leaves used are generally from trees esteemed in Hindu belief, such as the kalamb, rui, agada, and umbar. The specific assortment varies by locality and availability. Maratha clans using the ''panch pallava'' as their clan devak include: Bhoite, Bhonsale, Bagawe, Dalvi, Dharmaraj, Devkante, Devpunje, Gavhane, Gangaik, Ghatge, Harphale, Kale, Shisode, Surve, Shirsagr, Zaware and their sub clans. ==Sources== *''Maráthas and Dekhani Musalmáns: Handbooks for the Indian Army''.
