- Chera_dynasty abstract "Chēra dynasty (Cēra, also called Kērala Putra)(Tamil:சேரர்) is one of the most ancient Tamil dynasties in India, ruling over an area corresponding to modern-day western Tamil Nadu and central Kerala. Together with the Chōlas and the Pāndyas, they formed the three principal warring Iron Age Tamil kingdoms of southern India in the early centuries of the Common Era.By the early centuries of the Common Era, civil society and statehood under the Cheras was developed in present day western Tamil Nadu. The location of the Chera capital is generally assumed to be at modern Karur (identified with the Korura of Ptolemy). The Chera kingdom later extended to the plains of Kerala –through the Palghat gap – along the river Perar and occupied land between the river Perar and river Periyar, creating two harbor towns – Tondi (Tyndis) and Muciri (Muziris) – where the Roman trade settlements flourished.The Cheras were in continuous conflict with neighbouring Cholas and Pandyas. Some Chera rules are said to have defeated the combined armies of the Pandyas and the Cholas and their ally states. They also made battles with the Kadambās of Banavasi and the "Yavanas" (the Westerners) on the Indian coast. After the 2nd century AD, the Chera's power decayed rapidly with the decline of the lucrative trade with the Romans.The Tamil poetic collection called Sangam literature describes a long line of Chera rulers dated to first few centuries AD. It records the names of the kings and the princes, and of the court poets who extolled them. The internal chronology of this literature is still far from settled, and at present a connected account of the history of the period cannot be derived. Uthiyan Cheralathan, Nedum Cheralathan and Senguttuvan Chera are some of the rulers referred in the Sangam poems. Senguttuvan Chera, the most celebrated Chera king, is famous for the legends surrounding Kannagi, the heroine of the Tamil epic Silapathikaram.The Chera kingdom owed its importance to the trade with the West Asia, Greeks and Romans. The geographical advantages, like the abundance of exotic spices, the navigability of the rivers connecting the Ghat mountains with the Arabian sea and the discovery of favourable Monsoon winds which carried sailing ships directly from the Arabian coast to Chera kingdom, combined to produce a veritable boom in the Chera foreign trade.The Chera Perumals of Makkotai ruled from the 9th to 12th centuries AD in modern day Kerala. The Perumal kingdom was a loose federation of local chiefs nominally acknowledging the sovereignty of the Cheraman Perumal and supporting him in defensive wars against the other Tamil powers.Chera Dynasty was supported by Tamil Villavar warriors supported by Villavar, Vanavar and Malayar clans. It was a Brahmin oligarchy which propped up the Perumal, a member of the old and prestigious Chera dynasty(Citation required).The Chera rulers of Venadu, based at port Quilon in southern Kerala, traces their relations back to the Perumals of Makkotai. Ravi Varma Kulasekhara, ruler of Venadu from 1299 to 1314, is known for his ambitious military campaigns to former Pandya and Chola territories.".
