== History ==
According to a legend, a woman by the name of Dhantibai used to live in Era 1204. One day, as she was pestling grain on a [[mortar and pestle|mortar]] atop a hill, blood started to come out from it. She panicked and called for help. When Maharaja Madan Varman came, he noticed a [[Shivling]] at the spot. He then built Kundeshwar Temple at that location.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.patrika.com/tikamgarh-news/kundeshwar-ke-mahadev-ka-chamatkar-2346768/|title=Video ओखली में धान कूटते समय निकलने लगा था रक्त, देखा तो प्रकट हो गए महादेव, मनाया उत्सव|work=www.patrika.com|language=hindi|access-date=1 July 2019|first=Anil|last=Eawat|date=10 February 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.livehindustan.com/news/astrology/article1-madhya-pradesh-tikamgarh-kundeshwar-temple-of-lord-shiva-707756.html|title=भोलेनाथ के इस मंदिर में हर साल चावल के दाने के बराबर बढ़ता है शिवलिंग|work=Hindustan Dainik|language=hindi|access-date=1 July 2019|date=17 February 2017}}</ref>

According to the ethics, Banpur was the capital of Banasur, the king of demons and a great devotee of the Lord Siva Mahadev, her daughter Usha Devi was also a devotee of Shiv Linga of Mahadev. Usha Devi was married to Anirudha, the grandson of Lord Krishna and son of Pradumna.

Bagwar Suryawanshi, a Bira Kshatriya was Baghwa - Lion rider in Madhya Desh called Baghroha from Banpur to the dense forest of Jamdhar river long back before Samvat 1201(1144 A.D.) as engraved footnote found below the idol of Nandi Mahadev.

Gaharwar Raja Govindachandra moved his capital from Kannauj to Varansi (1114-1154).

Amongst 13 sons of Punja Kamdhuj, Muktaman, who conquered possession in the north from Bhan Tuar, his descendants called Bira Kamdhuj came to occupy territory of Madhya Desh - Bundelkhand.

Raja [[Vir Singh Deo]] (r. 1605-1627), a ruler of strong principles; he was not only a warrior but an enthusiastic builder, leaving many monuments, forts and temples; he patronised the building up of the temple and awarded with the title of Panda or Pandya of Kundeshwar Mahadev to Bagwar clan with copper plate Rajagya owing to their Rajput ancestry.
