Devkot
Devkot ((ベンガル語: দেবকোট)) (also known as Kotivarsha, Devikota, Devakota or Diw-kot) was an ancient city which was the administrative centre of Kotivarsha Vishaya (territorial division), itself part of the wider administrative unit of Pundravardhana Bhukti, which had Mahasthangarh as its capital〔Chakrabarti, Dilip K. (2006, reprint 2007). ''Relating History to the Land'' in Patrick Oleville (ed.) ''Between the Empires: Society in India 300 BCE to 400 CE'', New York: Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-568935-6, p.9〕 in the period of Chandras, Varmans and Senas.
==History==
The earliest mentions about the Kotivarsha town are found in the Vayu Purana (XXIII,209) and the ''Brihat Samhita'' (XI,II). Lexicographers, Hemchandra (the ''Abhidhanachintamani'' IV,977) and Purushottama (in his ''Trikandashesha'') have mentioned the city by several names – Uma(Usha?)vana, Banapura, and Shonitapura. Sandhyakara Nandi in his Ramacharita described at length about the temples and the lakes of the city.〔Roy, Niharranjan (1993). ''Bangalir Itihas: Adiparba'' (in Bengali), Calcutta: Dey's Publishing, ISBN 81-7079-270-3, p.301〕 The ruins of the city are found in Bangarh, which is located at Gangarampur town, about 45 km south of Balurghat town, in Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal state in eastern India. It has variously thought of as part of Pundravardhana or Rarha regions.〔Majumdar, Dr. R.C., ''History of Ancient Bengal'', First published 1971, Reprint 2005, p. 10, Tulshi Prakashani, Kolkata, ISBN 81-89118-01-3.〕 There was a Brahmin densities at Devikota.〔Majumdar, Dr. R.C., p. 457〕
Afghan rule was first established in Bengal in 1204 by Bakhtiyar Khilji. The kingdom was called Lakhnawati or Lakhnauti. The capital was located sometimes at Lakhnawati and sometimes at Devkot. Bakhtiyar Khilji died at Devkot in 1205-06, possibly murdered by Ali Mardan, who was governor of Naran-Koh.〔Majumdar, Dr. R.C., ''History of Mediaeval Bengal'', First published 1973, Reprint 2006, pp. 3, 67, Tulshi Prakashani, Kolkata, ISBN 81-89118-06-4.〕
