Best Answer

Lahore was known in ancient times as Lavapura.

The Lahore Fort has a vacant temple dedicated to Lava (also pronounced Loh, hence "Loh-awar" or The Fort of Loh). This name was given for "Lava" the son of Hindu god, "Rama". Likewise, the Ravi River that flows through northern Lahore was named for the Hindu goddess Durga.
