'''Panch Pallava''' (literally "five leaves") is a ritual assortment of five different leaves used as a [[devak]] (totem) by the [[Maratha]] culture in [[India]].

Among those clans holding the ''panch pallava'' as a devak, it is used ritually for marriages, funerals, and other important rites.

These five leaves used are generally from trees esteemed in Hindu belief, such as the [[Neolamarckia cadamba|kalamb]], [[rui (tree)|rui]], [[agada]], and [[Ficus racemosa|umbar]]. The specific assortment varies by locality and availability.

Maratha clans using the ''panch pallava'' as their clan devak include: [[Bhoite]], [[Bhonsale]], Bagawe, [[Dalvi]], Dharmaraj, Devkante, Devpunje, Gavhane, Gangaik, [https://mr.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%E0%A4%98%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%9F%E0%A4%97%E0%A5%87_%E0%A4%89%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AB_%E0%A4%98%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A1%E0%A4%97%E0%A5%87# Raje Ghatge or Raje Ghadge], [[Harphale]], Kale, Liman, Shisode, [[Surve]], [[phadtare]], Shirsagr, Zaware and their sub clans.
