The '''Ror dynasty''' (Sindhi: روهڙا راڄ‎) or the '''House of Dhaj''', was a dynasty founded by [[Dhaj]] that ruled the [[Ror Empire]] from its inception in 450 BCE till the late fifth century, and then as ceremonial suzerains over much of the empire until 415. As capital of the Sauvira Kingdom, Roruka is mentioned as an important trading center in early Buddhist literature.

Divyavadana, the Buddhist chronicle has said that Ror historically competed with Pataliputra in terms of political influence. The scholar T.W. Rhys Davids has mentioned Roruka as one of the most important cities of India in the 7th century BCE.<ref>''Ror Itihaas Ki Jhalak'', by Dr. Raj Pal Singh, Pal Publications, Yamunanagar (1987) pp. 89-92</ref>
