As per Wikipedia, It is believed that the holy Hindu sage Markandeya lived in the fort and punished the Bhimasur and other demons who were attacking Bhramin priests. The Rashtrakutas issued various grants to the place called Mayur Khndi. This fort served as an outpost. In 1639 the Mughal commander Aliwardikhan won the fort along with the neighboring forts.[2] In the first week of October 1670 Shivaji while retreating from Surat after the loot was intercepted by the Moghul forces led by Daudkhan near Kanchan-Manchana forts. The Moghuls suffered a sizeable loss in the battle. On 25 October 1670, Moropant Pingale moved to the Nashik region and captured Aundha fort, Trymbakgad fort, Patta Fort, Ravlya, Jawlya, and Markandya. After the death of Shivaji Maharaj, the fort was again captured by the Moghuls. The Peshwas kept a garrison on the hill.[1] The fort was captured by Captain Briggs of East India company in 1818.
There are many forts in the mountain range starting from the Saptashrungi fort in the Nashik district. Saptashringigad, Markandya, Ravalyajavalya, Dhodap etc. Forts come in this mountain range. Markandya fort is located on the hill in front of Saptashrungi fort. In ancient times, Markandeya sages lived on a hill separated by a ravine from the forts near Saptashringi gad and Rawalya. Therefore, this hill and its fort are known as Markandeya Fort.
