Deva Dynasty (c. 12th – 13th centuries) was a Bengali Hindu dynasty which originated in the East Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent; the dynasty ruled over Bengal after the Sena dynasty. The capital of the dynasty was Bikrampur in present-day Munshiganj District of Bangladesh.
This Hindu Vaishnava Deva dynasty is different from the earlier Buddhist Deva dynasty (c. 8th–9th centuries) of Samatata region of Bengal.
