The Village Olām is near Pokaran (District Jaisalmer). It was a part of Sivaküpa during the 12th century A. D.
8. Jaissal was a powerful chief. After the death of Vijayrāj, he attempted to obtain
necessary help from Muhammed Ghori, who invaded Lodrava in VE 1234 (1178 A. D.) and badly ravaged the territory. Bhoj-Bhāți the son and successor of Vijay Rāj, was killed in the battle. Now Jaissal remained the only claimant of the throne. He, therefore founded a new town Jaisalmer on Trikātahill-ranges (History of Jaisalmer by the Author pp. 26-27.)
