Koyla Dungar,Gandhvi (Harshad) Jagadu, the 13th century merchant from Kutch, is accredited for building a temple. The present temple at the foot-hill of Koyal Dungar is near the old port town of Miyani near Porbandar. His statue is placed on the right side of the goddess in the temple. The legend associated with the temple holds that the original temple was on the hill overlooking the creek. The idols were moved to the foot of the hill. The seashore of Miyani was inaccessible, as any ship that came within eyesight of Goddesses would sink. Jagdu Shah was travelling with his fleet of 7 ships. He was on the last ship with his family. One by one the other 6 ships sank in front of his eyes. His Captain reminded him that he had warned that no ships can reach within sight of the temple and that only Goddess Harsidhhi could save them. Jagdu prayed to Devi for safe anchoring in shore and his ship reached safely the shore.
