They erected a port over here, and built a machi here. Korlai was initially known as the "Rock of Chaul". In 1594, there was a chaotic situation after Burhan Nizam died.
The Portuguese tried to take advantage of this by building fortification here. But Hussein Nizam perceived the danger and decided to fortify this mountain himself. The Portuguese opposed this and they signed a treaty. It was decided that inseam
