The Pandya dynasty, also known as the Pandyas of Madurai, was a dynasty of south India, one of the three ethnically Tamil lineages, the other two being the Chola and the Chera.[4] The rulers of the three dynasties were referred to as "the three crowned rulers (the mu-ventar) of the Tamil country".[4][5] The Pandyas ruled extensive territories, at times including the large portions of present-day south India and Sri Lanka (through collateral branches subject to Madurai).Madurai was capital of the pandya kingdom.[6][7]

The age and antiquity of the dynasty is difficult to establish.[7] The early Pandya chieftains[8] ruled their country (the Pandya nadu) from time immemorial, which included the inland city of Madurai and the southern port of Korkai.[9] The country of the Pandyas finds mention in a number of Graeco-Roman sources (as early as 4th century BCE[7]) and the edicts Maurya emperor Asoka (3rd century BCE).[10][9] The Pandyas are also celebrated in the earliest available Tamil poetry ("the Sangam literature").[7] Greek and Latin accounts (early centuries CE), coins with legends in Tamil-Brahmi script, and Tamil-Brahmi inscriptions suggest the continuity of the Pandya dynasty from the 3rd century BCE to early centuries CE.[11] The early historic Pandyas faded into obscurity upon the rise of the Kalabhra dynasty in south India.[12]

The Pandyas revived under Kadungon (r. 590 – 620 CE) towards the end of the 6th century, helped to disestablish the Kalabhras in south India.[13] From 6th century to 9th century CE, the Chalukyas of Badami or Rashtrakutas of the Deccan, the Pallavas of Kanchi, and Pandyas of Madurai dominated the politics of south India. The Pandyas, at one time or another, ruled or invaded the fertile estuary of Kaveri (the Chola country), the ancient Chera country (Kongu and central Kerala) and Venadu (south Kerala), the Pallava country and Sri Lanka.[13] The Pandyas went into decline with the rise of the Cholas of Tanjore in the 9th century and were in constant conflict with them. The Pandyas allied themselves with the Sinhalese (Sri Lanka) and the Cheras in harassing the Chola Empire until they found an opportunity for reviving their fortunes during the late 13th century.[14] The Pandyas were very close allies of the Sinhalese and they often deposited their crowns and other royal insignia with the Sinhalese king for safe-keeping.[15]

The Pandyas (1216–1345) entered their "golden age" under Maravarman Sundara I and Jatavarman Sundara I (c. 1251), who expanded the empire into the Telugu country (as far north as Nellore[7]), south Kerala[6] and conquered Sri Lanka.[6] The Pandyas of Ucchangi (9th–13th century), in the Tungabhadra Valley were related to the
