Origins of Lahore
text:
A Hindu legend based on oral traditions holds that Lahore, known in ancient times as Nokhar,
was founded by Prince Lava,
the son of the goddess Sita and Rama; Kasur was founded by his twin brother Prince Kusha.
To this day, Lahore Fort has a vacant Lava temple dedicated to Lava. It is one of various etymological theory of Lahore's origin. The oldest authentic document about Lahore was written anonymously in 982. It is called Hudud-i-Alam. In 1927 it was translated into English by Vladimir Fedoro
