Based on my research with due diligence, I'm convinced to believe that anavils are from ancient Surparka kingdom that existed from Narmada river to Raigad district of present day Maharashtra. That kingdom was established from Lord Parshuram and given to Brahmin descendent of Sage Kashyap to govern.
Present day Nala Sopara near Virar was its capital and I'm confident that our forefathers used to live there as well. Historically speaking, anavils are baloch tribe and that's the reason why they don't get united too often as traditionally they are fiercely independent due to their background and ancestry. It is logical that baloch tribe travelled from present day Baluchistan to Bhojpur in Bihar and from there it scattered into different directions in India.
Those who came to South Gujarat are called Anavils. I see even now that Anavils are very different in their thinking and even culturally from other Gujarati castes. In fact, I was told many times that I am not like typical Gujarati and being an Anavil, I never understood where it's coming from as I never tried anything by myself to look different from other Gujaratis but not I understand where it came from! It is very natural as Anavil's genes are not the same as other typical Gujarati castes.
Jai Anavil!
