Ramai Deva
Ramai Deva was, according to tradition, the Chauhan Rajput founder of the ruling dynasty of Patna in western Odisha in the mid-14th century. From Patnagarh he became overlord of the neighbouring hill chiefs, a group known as the Athara Garhjat, the eighteen forts. His line ruled Patna and, through a branch, Sambalpur, until the princely states joined India.
