Nadol

Nadol, known in inscriptions as Naddula, was the capital of a branch of the Chauhan dynasty in southern Rajasthan. Its rulers held the surrounding country between the tenth and twelfth centuries and supported temples in the town. Inscriptions record gifts and the organisation of worship, while excavated remains reveal the stone architecture of a once flourishing centre. The Ashapura Mata temple is associated in local tradition with the early Chauhan rulers of Nadol.
