In the early part of the 4th millennium, this area was outside the realms of the Kūṣṛmāthi civilization but in its sphere of influence. About halfway through that millennium, Lahob-speaking tribes (the Ur-Chlouvānem) settled in the area, finishing their long migration journey across the whole continent and started settling together with the local people, with common intermixing. | ||
While for many centuries there were various settlements in the swamplands and by the hills of today's Līlasuṃghāṇa, the founding of the city itself happened in 4426 (268ᘔ<sub>12</sub>) by order of Great Inquisitor Kahērimaili ga Banditiāvi ''Dalaigana'', aiming to build the holiest city the world had ever seen. The center of this settlement was on a bigger hammock in the swamp, not far from the Talitanah river and about three kilometers upstream from the lakeside - today's Kahērimaila ("clear water") sector, named after the founding Great Inquisitor's regnal name. The only access to the early city was from the Talitanah river, and a smaller settlement was built at its mouth, functioning as a gate for the city - this area has been later remodelled by land reclamation and it is now the Janaimarta ("port city") sector; many foundation-era buildings can however be seen in the ''talitanah ga maiti memāyi jarmān'' (Talitanah River Mouth Park), part of Saṃryojyam sector, and by the rest of the Saṃryojyam lakeshore. | While for many centuries there were various settlements in the swamplands and by the hills of today's Līlasuṃghāṇa, the founding of the city itself happened in 4426 (268ᘔ<sub>12</sub>) by order of Great Inquisitor Kahērimaili ga Banditiāvi ''Dalaigana'', aiming to build the holiest city the world had ever seen.

Līlasuṃghāṇa is possibly the Chlouvānem city with the highest number of old nobiliar palaces. For a period in Chlouvānem history, it was common for many royal families to have a "representation palace" in the holy city; this makes their number higher than in most other cities, where only the local nobles built their palaces. Most nobiliar palaces in Līlasuṃghāṇa (and all royal ones) are located in Kahērimaila, with a minor number of them in neighboring Lūṣyambādhi and Hūneidauṣa.<br/>After the deposition of nobility in the Nāɂahilūmi era and the expropriation of former noble properties in the first years of the Kaiṣamā, all former royal and nobiliar palaces are now property of the State and house either Offices of the Inquisition (for example the Dhārāṣmaja Palace, second-largest in the city (only behind the Inquisitorial Palace), houses the Inquisitorial Office of Economic Development), museums (e.g. Māyīmajālta Palace, just opposite the Inquisitorial Palace, which houses the Pan-Inquisitorial Museum of Natural History), or other institutions (e.g. the three palaces composing the Ūjaravāli complex, used by some departments of the Ecumenical School of Līlasuṃghāṇa). | Līlasuṃghāṇa is possibly the Chlouvānem city with the highest number of old nobiliar palaces.
