Question

Examine inscriptions as a source for reconstructing kakatiya history.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Kakatiyas are also known as worshippers of Svayambhudeva, Siva. The Bayyaram tank epigraph now definitely proves that Venna was the earliest member of the family and he ruled from a town called Kakati and as such his descendants are styled as Kakatiyas.

Answer 2

The inscriptions were found in Andhra Pradesh and reflect history.

• They are the old stone engravings of the historical Kakatiya dynasty which explains its works and accomplishments.
• Emperor Ganapati Deva, a mighty king of the dynasty, had constructed the stone inscription, which is yet another intriguing archaeological find.
• Nearly 180 Sanskrit and Telugu notes documenting Rudrama's birth and the quantity of land donated to Visweswara temple make up the inscription.
• It also pays tribute to hamlet's charitable efforts, which include a rest home, a maternity centre, and a temple-affiliated hospital. An educational edifice for teaching Sanskrit and Shivite scriptures is mentioned in the inscription.
