According to legend, his younger half-brother was crowned king and Rawal Jaisal, the eldest successor of the Rawal of Deoraj, was passed over the throne of Lodurva. He was searching for a new capital in an attempt to atone for his transgressions when he encountered a sage who informed him of an old prophecy.

As a result, in 1156 Rawal Jaisal built a mud fort nearby and gave it the name Jaisalmer in honor of himself. The name Jaisalmer literally means "Hill Fort of Jaisal." Its position along the historic trade routes contributed to its legendary wealth and opulent architectural design. Jaisalmer is renowned for its wood carvings, regional artistic talent, and extraordinarily rich performing arts cultural legacy.
