Kalachuris Of Tripuri
The Kalachuris of Tripuri (IAST: ), also known the Kalachuris of Chedi, ruled parts of central India during 7th to 13th centuries. They are also known as the Later Kalachuris to distinguish them from their earlier namesakes, especially the Kalachuris of Mahishmati. Their core territory included the historical Chedi Kingdom, Chedi region (also known as Baghelkhand#Dahala, Dahala-rajamandala, mandala), and their capital was located at Tripuri (present-day Tewar, Madhya Pradesh, Tewar near Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh). The origin of the dynasty is uncertain, although one theory connects them to the Kalachuris of Mahishmati. By the 10th century, the Kalachuris of Tripuri had consolidated their power by raiding neighbouring territories and by fighting wars with the Gurjara-Pratiharas, the Kingdom of Bundelkhand and the Kingdom of Malwa. They also had matrimonial relations with the Rashtrakutas and the Chalukyas of Kalyani. In the 1030s, the Kalachuri king Gangeyadeva assumed the title ...

Kalachuris Of Ratnapura
The Kalachuris of Ratnapura, also known as the Haihayas of Ratanpur, were a dynasty that ruled in Central India during the 12th and 13th centuries. They ruled parts of present-day Chhattisgarh from their capital at Ratnapura (modern Ratanpur in Bilaspur district, Chhattisgarh, Bilaspur district). They were an offshoot of the Kalachuris of Tripuri, and ruled as vassals of the parent dynasty for many years. The Ratnapura branch was established by Kalinga-raja around 1000 CE. His descendants became independent towards the end of the 11th century, and fought with their neighbours to consolidate their rule, including the Eastern Ganga dynasty, Eastern Gangas. Pratapa-malla, the last confirmed descendant of Kalinga-raja, ruled in the early 13th century. No information is available about his immediate successors, but towards the end of the 14th century, the family appears to have split into two branches, with their capitals at Ratanpur and Raipur respectively.

Kalachuris Of Mahishmati
The Kalachuris of Mahismati, or the Early Kalachuris, were an early medieval Indian dynasty that ruled present-day Maharashtra, as well as parts of mainland Gujarat and southern Madhya Pradesh. Their capital was located at Mahishmati. Epigraphic and numismatic evidence suggests that the earliest of the Ellora and Elephanta cave monuments were built during the Kalachuri rule. The origin of the dynasty is uncertain. In the 6th century, the Kalachuris gained control of the territories formerly ruled by the Guptas, the Vakatakas and the Vishnukundinas. Only three Kalachuri kings are known from inscriptional evidence: Shankaragana, Krishnaraja, and Buddharaja. The Kalachuris lost their power to the Chalukyas of Vatapi in the 7th century. One theory connects the later Kalachuri dynasties of Tripuri and Kalyani to the Kalachuris of Mahishmati. Origin The origin of the Kalachuris is uncertain. In inscriptions, they are variously known as Kalachuri, Kalatsuri, and Katatchuri. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Kalachuris Of Kalyani
The Kalachuris of Kalyani, also Southern Kalachuris, were a 10th-12th-century Indian dynasty, who ruled over parts of present-day northern Karnataka and Maharashtra. This dynasty will rise to its peak power in the Deccan region between 1156 and 1181. The rulers of the dynasty traced their origins to one Krishna, who is said to have conquered Kalinjar and Dahala in present-day Madhya Pradesh (see Kalachuris of Tripuri). Bijjala, a viceroy of the dynasty, is said to have established the authority over Karnataka after wresting power from the Chalukya king Taila III. Bijjala was succeeded by his sons Someshvara and Sangama but after 1181 CE, the Chalukyas gradually retrieved the territory. Their rule was short and turbulent and yet very important from a socio-religious point of view; a new sect known as the Lingayat or Virashaiva sect was founded during these times in a time extent of 25 years.Students' Britannica India By Dale Hoiberg, Indu Ramchandani.

Kalachuris Of Sarayupara
The Kalachuris of Sarayupara (650 - 1080) were a medieval Indian dynasty who ruled along the banks of the Sarayu (modern Ghaghara) river in present-day Eastern Uttar Pradesh. Their domain consisted of the present-day Bahraich, Champaran, and Gonda districts. History There have been multiple dynasties with the name kalachuri. One such branch of the Kalachuris started ruling on the banks of the Sarayu (modern Ghaghara) river from the Seventh-century CE. Rajputra is the first known king of the dynasty, who defended his kingdom from an attack by the powerful Pala ruler Dharmapala. The third king of the dynasty, Shankargana I, was defeated by the Kalachuri king of Tripuri, Kokalla I. Shankargana I's successor, Gunambodhideva, successfully assisted the Gurjara-Pratihara ruler Mihira Bhoja in his war against the Pala ruler Devapala. Mihira Bhoja granted some territories to Gunambodhideva in exchange for his assistance. The sixth king, Bhamanadeva, helped the Gurjara-Pratihara ruler ...
