Dausa

Dausa lies in the Dhundhar country east of Amber, among low hills and cultivated plains. It is remembered as an early capital of the region, first associated with Chauhan rulers and later with the Kachhwaha Rajputs. The Kachhwahas went on to establish their principal seat at Amber, from which their dynasty developed the state later centred on Jaipur. Dausa retained its place in the older landscape of Dhundhar.
