It is believed that the temple of Mahadev on Pitambara Peeth is Mahabharata, while the temple of Mahadev of Madhiya was founded by an asura named Dant Vakreshwar 5 thousand years ago. Then there was a forest here. Later, the city settled here, named Dantria named after Dant Vakreshwar, which later became upset and became Datia. There is a belief about both these Shiva temples that whatever the devotees wish in both the temples are fulfilled. Therefore, there is a flow of devotees from 4 am to half night on Mahashivaratri.
