History
Artifacts from the Stone Age (dating from 5,000 to 200,000 years ago) have been discovered near Bundi.
In 1241, Bundi was established by a group of Chauhan nobles, who, having been defeated by Mohammed of Ghori, seized the territory from the Meena and Bhil tribes. Bundi was made the capital of their kingdom, Hadoti.
After the siege of Ranthambore in 1568, the ruler of the Kingdom of Bundi, Rao Surjan Singh, signed a treaty with the Mughal Empire, retaining a significant degree of autonomy.
In 1818, Rao Raja Bishan Singh formed an alliance with the British East India Company, wishing to counter the influence of the Maratha Empire in the region. During the Raj, Bundi retained regional independence as a princely state. Bundi's last ruler signed the Instrument of Accession in 1949, joining the new Dominion of India.
