There is a shrine of [[Khodiyarmata]] on the Khodiar hill, the image in which is said to have been installed by the [[Gohil]] chieftains of Umrala. Two hills, called respectively the Thapnath and the Isavo, lie to the eastward of Chogath. On the Thapnath hill is a temple of the Thapnath Mahadev, which enjoyed an endowment made by Thakor Sarangji of Umrala. The celebrated sage, Dhundhali Mai, whose curse is said to have caused the destruction of [[Vallabhi|Vala]], the ancient Valabhipur, resided in a hut on the Isalvo hill.<ref name="bg"/> | There is a shrine of [[Khodiyarmata]] on the Khodiar hill, the image in which is said to have been installed by the [[Gohil]]{{dn|date=May 2022}} chieftains of Umrala.

Chogath is a flourishing village, and bears wheat crops of excellent quality which is raised by irrigation. The village is no doubt an ancient one, and was very near [[Vallabhipur]], and though no architectural remains are now existent, large bricks, such as those found at Valabhi, are constantly dug up. There is an old ''[[paliya]]'' or memorial stone here, the inscription on which is illegible, but the date, [[Samvat]] 1516 (1460 AD), is plain enough.<ref name="bg"/> | Chogath is a flourishing village, and bears wheat crops of excellent quality which is raised by irrigation.
