Chivilaka ancestry

Chavel (चवेल)[1] Chavenl (चवेंल) Chawel (चवेल) Chanwel (चंवेल) is Gotra of Jats found in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

Origin

This gotra is said to be started after king named Chivilaka (चिविलक) son of Maharaja Lambodara (लम्बोदर). [2]

History

In Rajatarangini

Rajatarangini[3] mentions Shrichchhavillaka as an ascetic, which tells that No mention is made of fifty-two kings in the list of Kings of Kashmir on account of their irreligion. Four of these, Gonanda, &c, are named by Nilamuni ; Padmamihira following Heliraja gives an account of eight kings, descendants of Ashoka from Lava ; and Shrichchhavillaka speaks of five only. He writes, " from Ashoka to Abhimanyu five kings have been named out of fifty-two."

This description from Rajatarangini shows that the kings omitted were followers of Buddhism. The ascetic Shrichchhavillaka, we believe, must also be a Buddhist. Following rulers of sandhi: Shrichchhavillaka = Shri + Chhavillaka. Here Chhavillaka should be of Chavil/Chavel clan found in Jats.
