Deodar

Deodar, also known as Diyodar, lies in the dry plains of northern Gujarat. It was the seat of a small state ruled by a branch of the Vaghela family. According to its recorded history, the family established itself at Bhildi after the overthrow of Rajput rule at Patan in 1297, before holding territory in this part of the northern Gujarat frontier. The little principality endured among the larger powers that succeeded the Vaghelas.
