History
An inscription was found here in the 19th century dating to the time of Jivitagupta II.[2] This is a valuable source of information for the later Guptas, naming king Jivitagupta as the son of Vishnugupta and his queen Ijjadevi.[3] There is an ancient Sun temple in the village which received land grants from the Gupta and Maukhari rulers.[4] The location was photographed by Henry Baily Wade Garrick in 1881–82.[5]
Administration
Deo village is administrated by Mukhiya through its Gram Panchayat, who is elected representative of village as per constitution of India and Panchyati Raj Act.[6]
