Erra (Kakatiya Dynasty)
Erra or Eriya (fl. early 10th century) was a member of the Kakatiya dynasty of southern India. As a Rashtrakuta vassal, he appears to have ruled the Kurravadi (possibly present-day Kuravi) region, which was captured by the Rashtrakutas from the Chalukyas of Vengi. Life Erra was a son of the Rashtrakuta commander Gunda III (died c. 895 CE). He is also called "Eriya Rashtrakuta" in Kakatiya inscriptions; "Eriya" probably refers to the chief's personal name, and "Rashtrakuta" refers to his office. Erra's father participated in a Rashtrakuta invasion of Vengi, and was killed by Irimartiganda, the son of the Chalukya king Bhima I. According to the Bayyaram inscription, Erra ruled Kurravadi and surrounding region. The identity of this place is not certain, but it was probably present-day Kuravi in Telangana. The Kuravi (or Koravi) inscription suggests that the place was captured by Krishna II ("Kannara Ballaha") during the reign of the Chalukya king Bhima I, and later, the Mudugonda C ...

Kakatiya Dynasty
The Kakatiya dynasty (IAST: Kākatīya) was an Indian dynasty that ruled most of eastern Deccan region comprising present day Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, and parts of eastern Karnataka and southern Odisha between 12th and 14th centuries. Their capital was Orugallu, now known as Warangal. Early Kakatiya rulers served as feudatories to Rashtrakutas and Western Chalukyas for more than two centuries. They assumed sovereignty under Prataparudra I in 1163 CE by suppressing other Chalukya subordinates in the Telangana region. Ganapati Deva (r. 1199–1262) significantly expanded Kakatiya lands during the 1230s and brought under Kakatiya control the Telugu-speaking lowland delta areas around the Godavari and Krishna rivers. Ganapati Deva was succeeded by Rudrama Devi (r. 1262–1289) who is one of the few queens in Indian history. Marco Polo, who visited India around 1289–1293, made note of Rudrama Devi's rule and nature in flattering terms. She successfully repelled the attacks ...

Gunda III
Gunda III (died c. 895 CE), also known as Gundyana or Gundana, was a member of the Kakatiya dynasty of southern India. He served the Rashtrakuta king Krishna II, and died during Krishna's invasion of the Vengi Chalukya kingdom. He is the earliest known member of the Kakatiya family to have been in the Telugu-speaking region. Career Gunda III was a son of Gunda II, and a great-grandson of Venna, the earliest known ruler of the Kakatiya family which traced its lineage to Durjaya. Gunda III served as a Rashtrakuta commander in the Telugu-spe aking region, and is the earliest known member of the Kakatiya family to have been present in this region. The Mangallu inscription calls him "Gundyana Rashtrakuta" (or Gundana) and "''Samanta'' Votti" (a mistake for ''Vitti''). Gunda III finds a mention in the c. 956 CE Mangallu inscription (issued at the request of his great-grandson Gunda IV), and possibly the undated Masulipatnam inscription (issued by the Vengi Chalukya king Bhima I). ...

Gunda IV
Gunda IV (r. c. 955-995) alias Pindi-Gunda was a member of the Kakatiya dynasty of southern India. As a Rashtrakuta general, he helped the Vengi Chalukya prince Danarnava ascend the throne after a succession dispute. In 973 CE, after the collapse of the Rashtrakuta empire and the murder of Danarnava, he attempted to carve out an independent principality at Kuravi. The Kalyani Chalukyas, who had usurped the power from the Rashtrakutas, probably defeated and killed him, supported by the Mudugonda Chalukyas, the former rulers of Kuravi. In Rashtrakuta service Gunda IV was a son of Betiya and a grandson of Erra. He seems to have succeeded his grandfather on the throne, as Betiya's name is omitted in the dynasty's Bayyaram inscription. The inscription states that Gunda IV, also known as Gundyana or Pindi-Gunda, beheaded all his enemies. As a Rashtrakuta general, Gunda IV was probably stationed around the Kurravadi (possibly present-day Kuravi) region, which his grandfather Erra gov ...

Rashtrakuta
Rashtrakuta (IAST: ') (r. 753-982 CE) was a royal Indian dynasty ruling large parts of the Indian subcontinent between the sixth and 10th centuries. The earliest known Rashtrakuta inscription is a 7th-century copper plate grant detailing their rule from manapur a city in Central or West India. Other ruling Rashtrakuta clans from the same period mentioned in inscriptions were the kings of Achalapur and the rulers of Kannauj. Several controversies exist regarding the origin of these early Rashtrakutas, their native homeland and their language. The Elichpur clan was a feudatory of the Badami Chalukyas, and during the rule of Dantidurga, it overthrew Chalukya Kirtivarman II and went on to build an empire with the Gulbarga region in modern Karnataka as its base. This clan came to be known as the Rashtrakutas of Manyakheta, rising to power in South India in 753 AD. At the same time the Pala dynasty of Bengal and the Prathihara dynasty of Malwa were gaining force in eastern and ...

Chalukyas Of Vengi
Eastern Chalukyas, also known as the Chalukyas of Vengi, were a dynasty that ruled parts of South India between the 7th and 12th centuries. They started out as governors of the Chalukyas of Badami in the Deccan region. Subsequently, they became a sovereign power, and ruled the Vengi region of present-day Andhra Pradesh until . They continued ruling the region as feudatories of the Cholas until 1189 CE. Originally, the capital of the Eastern Chalukyas was located at the Vengi city (present-day Pedavegi, near Eluru). It was subsequently moved to Rajamahendravaram (now Rajahmundry). Throughout their history the Eastern Chalukyas were the cause of many wars between the more powerful Cholas and Western Chalukyas over the control of the strategic Vengi country. The five centuries of the Eastern Chalukya rule of Vengi saw not only the consolidation of this region into a unified whole, but also saw the efflorescence of Telugu and Kannada culture, literature, poetry and art during the la ...

10th-century Indian People
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is the s ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
