Contribution of the Pallavas to Art and Architecture
International Journal of Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Vol.11, No. 3, (2020), pp. 1254–1259 Contribution Of The Pallavas To Art And Architecture Dr. A. Prabhakaran, Assistant Professor in History, Department of History Thiru Kolanjiappar Govt Arts College, Vridachalam, 606001, ABSTRACT In the South old dynasties, the Cheras, the Pandiyas and the Cholas declined and new ones appeared of which the chief was the Pallavas. The Pallava rulers occupy an important place in the school on South Indian temple-building that is famous throughout the world as Dravidian style. The Pallavas patronized learning art and temple building both cave temples and structural temples including monolithic rathas and stone carvings of mythological scenes in Mahabalipuram. The Pallavas who laid the foundation of this style were responsible for two of its forms, the rock – cut and the structural. Pallavas temple constructions were quiet new in their style from that of the temples exist prior to Pallavas. The rivalry between the Pallava and Chalukya rulers was reflected on the architectural level; the existence of two Kailasanatha one at Ellora and other at Kanchi reflects this spirit of emulation. The stone inscription in Mahabalipuram and Kanchipuram name the Pallava rules, recounting their great deeds but not much light is thrown on their origin. The Pallava rathas were the core of this style and this essential element of the temple complex took root under Pallava patronage in the structures in Mahabalipuram and Kanchipuram. The vital artistic style of the Pallava period passed into history in a process of absorption that censured the continuity of Tamil cultural tradition. -

Introduction The period from C.300 CE to 750 CE marks the second historical phase in the regions south of the Vindhyas. In the first phase we notice the ascendency of the Satavahanas over the Deccan and that of the Sangam Age Kingdoms in Southern Tamilnadu. In these areas and also in Vidarbha from 3rd Century to 6th Century CE there arose about two dozen states which are known to us from their land charters. In Northern Maharashtra and Vidarbha (Berar) the Satavahanas were succeeded by the Vakatakas. Their political history is of more importance to the North India than the South India. But culturally the Vakataka kingdom became a channel for transmitting Brahmanical ideas and social institutions to the South. The Vakataka power was followed by that of the Chalukyas of Badami who played an important role in the history of the Deccan and South India for about two centuries until 753 CE when they were overthrown by their feudatories, the Rashtrakutas. The eastern part of the Satavahana Kingdom, the Deltas of the Krishna and the Godavari had been conquered by the Ikshvaku dynasty in the 3rd Century CE. -

All of the rivers and streams which intersect the district arise in the hills and mountains and flow into the Brahmaputra. The principal northern tributaries are the Manas, the Barnadi and the ?agladia which rise in the Himalaya mountains- These rivers have a tendency to change their course and wander away from the former channels because of the direct push from the Himalayas. -
Chalukyas Dynasty and Pallava Dynasty
Chalukyas Dynasty and Pallava Dynasty THE CHALUKYAS: History of the Chalukyas, the Karnataka rulers, can be classified into three eras: 1) The early western era (6th - 8th century), the Chalukyas of Badami (vatapi); 2) The later western era (7th - 12th century), the Chalukyas of Kalyani; 3) The eastern Chalukyas era (7th - 12th century), the Chalukyas of Vengi. Pulakesin I (543-566) was the first independent ruler of Badami with Vatapi in Bijapur as his capital. Kirthivarma I (566-596) succeeded him at the throne. When he died, the heir to the throne, Prince Pulakesin II, was just a baby and so the king‘s brother, Mangalesha (597-610), was crowned the caretaker ruler. Over the years, he made many unsuccessful attempts to kill the prince but was ultimately killed himself by the prince and his friends. Pulakesin II (610-642), the son of Pulakesin I, was a contemporary of Harshavardhana and the most famous of the Chalukyan kings.His reign is remembered as the greatest period in the history of Karnataka. He defeated Harshavardhana on the banks of the Narmada. 4) After conquering the Kosalas and the Kalingas, and eastern Chalukyan dynasty was inaugurated by his(Pulakeshin II) brother Kubja Vishnuvardana. 5) By 631, the Chalukyan empire extended from sea to sea. However, Pulkeshin II was defeated and probably killed in 642, when the Pallavas under Narsimhavarma I attack their capital & captured the Chalukyas capital at Badami. 6) The Chalukyas rose to power once again under the leadership of Vikramaditya I (655-681), who defeated his contemporary Pandya, Pallava, Cholas and Kerala rulers to establish the supremacy of the Chalukyan empire in the region. -

Economic and Cultural History of Tamilnadu from Sangam Age to 1800 C.E
I - M.A. HISTORY Code No. 18KP1HO3 SOCIO – ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL HISTORY OF TAMILNADU FROM SANGAM AGE TO 1800 C.E. UNIT – I Sources The Literay Sources Sangam Period The consisted, of Tolkappiyam a Tamil grammar work, eight Anthologies (Ettutogai), the ten poems (Padinen kell kanakku ) the twin epics, Silappadikaram and Manimekalai and other poems. The sangam works dealt with the aharm and puram life of the people. To collect various information regarding politics, society, religion and economy of the sangam period, these works are useful. The sangam works were secular in character. Kallabhra period The religious works such as Tamil Navalar Charital,Periyapuranam and Yapperumkalam were religious oriented, they served little purpose. Pallava Period Devaram, written by Apper, simdarar and Sambandar gave references tot eh socio economic and the religious activities of the Pallava age. The religious oriented Nalayira Tivya Prabandam also provided materials to know the relation of the Pallavas with the contemporary rulers of South India. The Nandikkalambakam of Nandivarman III and Bharatavenba of Perumdevanar give a clear account of the political activities of Nandivarman III. The early pandya period Limited Tamil sources are available for the study of the early Pandyas. The Pandikkovai, the Periyapuranam, the Divya Suri Carita and the Guruparamparai throw light on the study of the Pandyas. The Chola Period The chola empire under Vijayalaya and his successors witnessed one of the progressive periods of literary and religious revival in south India The works of South Indian Vishnavism arranged by Nambi Andar Nambi provide amble information about the domination of Hindu religion in south India. -
