Historical references
The descendants of Bali, the legendary king of Hastinapur in Indian mythology, were known as the Balivansh or Bali-Vansh. This dynasty is mentioned in the Mahabharata, an ancient Indian epic, and is considered a part of the Kuru lineage. The Mahabharata describes Bali as a powerful and generous king who ruled over the entire world. However, he was eventually overthrown by Vamana, an avatar of the god Vishnu, who assumed the form of a dwarf and conquered Bali.
Ancient Indian mythology, probably around 3000 BCE or earlier
According to another legend, the Balivansh were a powerful and wealthy clan of merchants and traders in medieval India, particularly in the regions of Gujarat and Malwa. They are mentioned in various historical texts, including the Ain-i-Akbari, a Persian-language book written during the Mughal Empire in the late 16th century. The Balivansh controlled significant trade routes and were known for their commercial acumen and wealth.
Medieval India, around 1500 CE
