Answer:

The Chola dynasty was a Tamil dynasty of southern India, one of the longest-ruling dynasties in the world's history. The earliest datable references to the Chola are in inscriptions from the 3rd century BCE left by Ashoka, of the Maurya Empire (Ashoka Major Rock Edict No.13). As one of the Three Crowned Kings of Tamilakam, along with the Chera and Pandya, the dynasty continued to govern over varying territory until the 13th century CE. Despite these ancient origins, the period when it is appropriate to speak of a "Chola Empire" only begins with the medieval Cholas in the mid-9th century CE.

The cultural development during the rule of the chola dynasty​

Explanation:

  • Kings of Chola ruled until the beginning of the 13th century BC for nearly four and half centuries. Under their rule, art and architecture in the South hade seen significant achievements together with the areas of cultural assimilation, military conquest and administration
  • The imperial Cholas period in South India was a time when Dravidian art and architecture was continuously improved and refined. In constructing long-lasting stone temples and beautiful bronze statues in an entirely Hindu cultural context, they used the riches acquired from their vast conquests .
  • The Cholas reign saw major changes in society and culture. In this period, the temple was the focus of all religious and social . The area became a school for the people where students had been taught Holy Scriptures and the ancient Vedas. In times of war and political uproar, this was also a safe place. At the time, Brahmin and Non-Brahms split the society structure. Various gods and goddesses have been worshiped with Shiva as a popular source of strength for the faithful.
  • Another important highlight of this period was literature. At this point Jain and Buddhist writings not only took form but also gained praise and acknowledgment. During this period, art, religion and literature were of major benefit. Several of Chola architecture sites are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. This includes the temple of Brihadisvara, the temple of Airavatesvara and Gangaikondacholisvaram. Sculpture and sculpture were always strong in this domain at all times. Sculptures made out of bronze from gods and goddesses like Vishnu, Lakshmi, and Shiva are a golden reminder of this period.
