Revatidvipa

Revatidvipa or Govapuri was a province under the Chalukya dynasty, encompassing parts of modern-day Goa and Maharashtra, India. Revatidvipa was an important trading port of the dynasties that controlled it, including the Chalukyas.[1][2] It was conquered by the Rashtrakuta ruler Krishna I in 753 AD.[3]

It flourished as a maritime port with a flow of traders and foreign mercantile communities developing. The most significant communist among them were the Pahlavi-speaking Christian merchants from Persis (modern-day Fars)[4]
