Chandrapura
The ancient city of Chandrapura, where Chandor now stands, served as a capital from the Bhojaperiod to that of the .Kadamba The name comes from Chandreshwar, meaning Lord of the Moon, after the Hindu god Shiva who wears a crescent in his hair. Chander also boasts of a fort and a temple within its citadel. Located 10 km (6.2 mi) from the inland of Margao, it has both ancient and modern aspects to its history.
Chandor also boasts of ancient inscriptions of Bhoja kings dating back to the 3rd or 4th Century CE. It is thought that by the 3rd century, the Bhojas had ruled over Goa as well as Shashti, Antruz, Bardez, North Kanara district, part of Belgaum district and some other areas around Goa with their main power base being Chandrapur (current Chandor).
The earliest piece of evidence being the Siroda plate found in Shiroda on the banks of a river. It also has a Shiva temple with old remnants of the fortress walls and form one of the oldest structural remains in Goa. Chandor’s origins are not exact, which has been justified by the fact that there has been found pottery of the Satyavahanas which leads one to think that their dynasty was much older than the Bhoja kings, ruling far back as 200 BCE.
Chandor was also the capital of the Kadambas until 1054, when they moved the capital to Govepuri/Gopakapattan. Govepuri was destroyed by Muslims in 1312, prompting them to move the capital back to Chandor, until it too was sacked in 1327.
Father Heras on his discovery of Chandor in 1929 CE, found a very old and shattered image of Nandi, Shiva’s Bull, believed to be affected adversely by raids in the 13th century CE. This is part of a complex housing the relics of an ancient temple dedicated to Shiva , known alternatively as Isvorachem.
The first Jain sculpture belonging to the early southern Shilahara in Salcete, Chandor was discovered by Fr Henry Heras during one of his expeditions.
The citizens of Chandor have long harboured a fear of marrying women, due to a "Queen's curse" dating to the Kadamba dynasty. Many men thus prefer to leave the village before marrying a woman.
