It is located to the northeast of [[Dhobitalao]] near the [[Chira Bazaar]] area. It got its name from the [[Koli people|Koli]] word Kolwar. The Kolis of this village were converted to [[Christianity]] by the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] in the 16th century. Cavel thus became a Christian enclave, and later immigrants of this religion, from [[Goa]], [[Daman District, India|Daman]], [[Vasai|Bassein]] and [[Salsette]] settled here. Two Portuguese churches are built here, &#039;&#039;Nossa Senhora de Saude&#039;&#039;, built-in 1794, presently known as [[Church of Our Lady of Health, Cavel|Our Lady of Health, Cavel]] and &#039;&#039;Nossa Senhora d&#039;Esperance&#039;&#039;. In later centuries, when the Christian population moved north, [[Gujarati people|Gujarati]] and [[Marwaris|Marwari]] traders moved into Cavel.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> *[[Kolli (disambiguation)]]<br /> *[[Chira Bazaar]]<br /> *[[Dhobitalao]]<br /> *[[Thakurdwar]]<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> ==External links==<br /> *[http://theory.tifr.res.in/bombay/physical/geo/dhobi-talao.html Cavel &amp;ndash; Mumbai / Bombay pages]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Neighbourhoods in Mumbai]]</div>
