    In ancient times, the Pir Panjal Range was better known as the Panchaladeva or Panchal Range, named after the legendary Panchala kingdom mentioned in Indian epics and texts. This association highlights its cultural and historical significance beyond its geographic identity as part of the Lesser Himalayas.
