write in brief about the rule of the pandyas
Answers
Pandya dynasty, Tamil rulers in the extreme south of India of unknown antiquity (they are mentioned by Greek authors in the 4th century BCE). The Roman emperor Julian received an embassy from a Pandya about 361 CE. The dynasty revived under Kadungon in the early 7th century CE and ruled from Madura (now Madurai) or farther south until the 16th century. The small but important (9th–13th century) dynastyof Pandya of Ucchangi, a hill fort south of the Tungabhadra River, may have originated from the Madura family.

The Early Pandyans ruled parts of Southern India from at least 4th century BCE. Pandyan rule ended in the first half of the 16th century CE.[5] They initially ruled their country Pandya Nadu from Korkai, a seaport on the southernmost tip of the Indian Peninsula, and in later times moved to Madurai. Pandyas had diplomatic relations as far as Rome.[citation needed] The country of the Pandyans was described as Pandyas by Megasthenes, Pandi Mandala in the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea and described as Pandyan Mediterranea and Modura Regia Pandionis by Ptolemy.
