    હાલારી હાથીડાં

    I have seen many mentions of the term used in the title in folk songs, one example would be "કહો તો ગોરી રે, હાલારી હાથીડાં મંગાવી દઉં. હાથીડાનો વ્હોરનાર રે, કાનો રમે છે મારી કેડમાં!" And I know this much that હાલાર was historical name for the region around modern day Jamnagar city. My question is whether the region had a reputation of domesticating elephants, or it was just a case of વર્ણાનુપ્રાસ. Or does "હાથીડાં" in this context mean something totally different, maybe garments with embroidered elephants or something, which might again be a speciality of હાલાર??
