Shilahara

The Shilahara Dynasty (also Shilahara, Sinhara, Shailahara, Shrilara, and Silara) was a feudal clan that established itself in northern and southern Konkan, present-day Mumbai and southern Maharashtra during the Rashtrakuta period. Their descendants are seen even today in Maharashtra, Goa and Karwar ( Karnataka) as the Shelar and Sawant/Savant clan of the Kshatriya Marathas of the Konkan respectively.

They were split into three branches; one branch ruled North Konkan, the second South Konkan (between 765 to 1029), while the third ruled what is now known as modern districts of Satara, Kollapura and Belagavi between 940 to 1215 after which they were overwhelmed by the Chalukya.
