Adoni has undergone a number of substantial changes over the past few centuries.
Emerging as a military base for the Vijayanagara Empire in the 15th century, the
city has evolved to become a modern, manufacturing hub. Located in southeast India,
roughly 200 kilometers from Hyderabad. Under the Vijayanagara, the city stood at
the center of the consolidating of a shifting, fragmented countryside into a more
disciplined, structure empire. Even after the Empire fell in the 16th century, as
a product of military conflicts, the city remained a core part of Southern Indian
history.

In the wake of the shift, the Yadava caste became the dominant cultural force in
the city. with strong Vaishnavism Hindi influence. As a result, the city became
known as Yadavagiri for centuries, until cultural changes led the population to
adopt Islam in the following centuries. The city largely lacked organized self-rule
until the mid 19th century, when the city organized a Municipal Council to give
it a formal governing structure.

Under the influence of British colonialism in the 20th century, Southern Indian
was divided into several administrative districts; Adoni fell into the district
of Bellary. The city gained its present seat as part of the state of Andra Pradesh
in 1953, when the British further divided the country by language of origin. While
the city constantly shifted its governmental structure, it emerged as a trade hub
as a product of its impressive bounties of grain and gold, along with cloth and
textile production. Over the century, the city built up an entire industry of cotton
mills, solidifying its place in the county’s modern trade economy.
