1) who is the crown prince - first born male son of the king or son of the pattmahishi.
2) we see that this was not strictly followed for cholas, but how about others.
3) is it mandatory that the king should take a pattamahishi to be crowned ( as kalki writes in SS - when mamalla is being convinced by mahendrar)
4) any tent dates for crowning of vimaladityan and if so was kundavi his pattamahishi.
5) was raja raja narendra the crown prince.
6) who was vijayaditha's mother and from which clan. ( i think in mannan magal she is shown as the daugther of jayasimhan!!!)
7) if raja raja narendra rules from 1018 onwards, then ammanga devi could not be his pattamahishi - as the ganges campaign was only in 1019 - return to GKC 1022 and tent marriage during that period.
the first chola ambasador reaches china in 1015 - how long could they have taken to travel from tanjore to china?? given that RJC was crowned in 1014 - he must have immdly despatched them out...
1018 - Rajadhiraja appointed co regent and same year is the lanka campaign - rjc bringing back the pandya haram from lanka is inscribed in big temple in 1020. so it took two years to search and get it back.
1019 - 1021 - western chalukyan campaign starts and extends as the ganges campaign
Kulothunga Chola 1 is partly eastern Chalukya also known as Vengi Chalukyas
The first ruler of the Vengi Chalukya dynasty is Kubja Vishnuvardana (624 AD to 641AD)
The 23rd ruler of this dynasty was Vimaladitya (1011 AD to 1018AD)
This Vimaladitya married Kundavai who was the daughter of our great Raja Raja Chola and the sister of King Rajendra Chola 1.
Vimaladitya's son was Raja Raja Narendra.So for Raja Raja Narendra His thaatha -Raja Raja Chola His Amma -Kundavai His Thaai Maaman -Rajendra Chola 1
With the help of his maternal uncle Rajendra Chola 1, Raja Raja Narendra(1018 AD to 1061AD) became the 24 th ruler of the Vengi (or Eastern) Chalukya Dynasty.
This Raja Raja Narendra married Ammangai (his maama Ponnu) daughter of Rajendra Chola 1.
The son of Raja Raja Narendra was Rajendra Chalukya (Kulothunga Chola 1). Rajendra Chalukya spent much of his day in his maama veedu(Gangai Konda Cholapuram)
Rajendra Chlaukya(Kulothunga 1) married Madurantaki Devi the daughter of Rajendra Chola 2 (1054AD to 1063AD)
Rajendra Chola 2 had a brother -Virarajendra Chola and a son Raja Mahendra. Raja Mahendra died earlier before Rajendra Chola 2.
Vira Rajendra Chola was crowned as the Chola king in GangaiKonda Cholapuram.
After the death of Vira Rajendra Chola his son Adhirajendra Chola was assasinated in 1070AD.
With the assasination of Adhirajendra Chola there were no successors from this Chola line.So Rajendra Chalukya ascended the Chola throne as Kulothunga Chola 1.
Kulothunga Chola 1 also witnessed the end of the eastern Chalukya dynasty.The last ruler of vengi Chaukya dynasty was Vijayaditya 7 (stepbrother of Kulothunga Chola's father RajaRaja Narendra).
With the death of Vijayaditya 7 in 1075 AD the eastern Chalukya dynasty came to an end and vengi became a part of the Chola empire.
And also,each king have different.For Ex for RRC, the other name is ArulMozhi,etc., and also pattam name like for RJC,kadaram kondaan,Gangai kondaan like that So, pls can u please provide the other names of all kings? Actually im searching for this things. Saathmeeka
When I add lot of details, Queens, for eg., the tree becomes very big and difficult view it, and SPS wanted to verify the details before publishing. I took the list of kings SPS posted and Wikipedia as a reference to come up with the list. Will update the tree as and when I find more details and keep the group posted.
Please provide more details like King, Father, year, so it will be easy for me to insert. I am yet to get a hold of the whole dynasty, so it might take some time for me to do research and update it if you just the name.
