The word Lodham first originates in Rigveda (The oldest literature of Sanatan/ Hindu dharma), then the word again shows its presence in Manusmriti and in Parashuram sahitya. In all the slokas depicted, the word Lodham is used for Shoorveer / warrior/ brave. All the slokas shows at that time there were only one type Kshatriya on the earth, which was Lodham.
When Parashuram killed The Chakravarti King Sahastrabahoo (A Lodham) the then left over leaders of Kshatriyas (Lodham) went to The Lord Mahesh. The Lord Mahesh saved them from Parashuram and ordered all the Khastriyas (Lodham) to choose farming instead of Kshatra (weapons). As The Lord Mahesh saved the Lodhams from the atrocities of Parashuram the then he is also worshiped as The Lodheswar Mahadev.
The present day the length and breadth of Lodhies (Lodham) can be seen extended from Pakistan (west) to West-Bengal in east , Nepal in north, Karnataka and Goa in South India.
They have 23 Rajgharanas (Thikans) in Indian subcontinent starting from the west
