Local legends identify the region as part of 's domain, with the city's name derived from "Hindaun" as a variant referencing the king, whose son was a devoted follower of despite paternal persecution.

Fortifications like Hindaun Fort, constructed by the Dagur clan of Jats under the overarching Jadon suzerainty, underscored the strategic importance of the site for controlling trade routes and repelling raids, with the structure reflecting Rajput-era military architecture adapted by subordinate groups. The kingdom's rulers, such as those from the late 16th to early 18th centuries including Dwarka Das and Mukund Das, maintained a modest military force that indirectly bolstered regional security, enabling modest economic activities centered on grain production and local commerce.
