Pandya Dynasty - Dynasties of Ancient India | History for Kids | Educational Videos by Mocomi
presents: The exciting history of the Pandyas
Pandya Dynasty, was an ancient Tamil dynasty which ruled parts of South India until the 15th century AD.
One of the three ancient kingdoms in the south of India was the Pandyan Kingdom who ruled over Tamil Nadu until the end of the fifteenth century.
Korkai, a seaport on the southernmost tip of India was initially their capital, but then later the capital was moved to Madurai.
The Pandyan Empire was established by the Emperor Kadungon in the sixth century. He ascended the throne after defeating the clan of Kalabhras.
The Pandyas grew in strength and expanded their kingdom. Tamil Nadu was divided between the Pallavas and the Pandyas. The river Kaveri acted as a boundary between the two kingdoms.
The Pandyas controlled the districts which are known as Madurai and Tirunalveli today as well as parts of Southern Kerala.
The Pandyas were best known for their extensive trade network which spread as far as Rome and Greece. They excelled in trading though the seas from Dhanushkodi, the sea shore of Ramanathapuram, and Poompuhar, a city which was used to trade with China, Malaysia, Maldives and other. The Pandyas controlled the pearl fisheries along the South Indian coast between Sri Lanka and India, producing some of the finest pearls known.

Ooty Beautiful Hill Station In South India HD 2014
Ooty Beautiful Hill Station In South India 2014 HD 1080p
Called the Queen of Hill Stations picturesque, green Udhagamandalam better known, as Ooty is the most popular hill station in the South. Located in the Western ghats at a height of 2240m, Udhagamandalam is the headquarters of the Nilgiris district where the two ghats ranges meet. Nature has been generous with this region, which is by far the most beautiful in the state. Apart from coffee and tea plantations, trees like confiers, eucalptus, pine and wattle dot the hillside in Udhagamandalam and its encirons. Summer temperature is rarely higher than 25°c with a minimum of 10°c and winter is are distinctly cooler with a high of 21°c and a low 5°c. Curiously enough, this slice of paradise remained unknown to the great southern dynasties and it took the British to discover it in the early 1800s. They were, however, not the first inhabitants of this land as a tribe called Todas had been living there long before the British came, claiming that the Nilgiris had been their home since time immemorial. But the credit for modernising Udhagamandalam and making it accessible goes to the British who constructed the first railway line in the area and made it the summer capital of the Madras Presidency.
Ooty with smaller hill stations of Coonoor - 19 kms and Kothagiri 31 kms from Ooty are the other hill stations of this district. Nilgiri is India's first biosphere. It has been declared as one of the 14 'hotspots' of the world because of its unique bio-diversity. Nilgiri presents a truly breath taking kaleidoscope of visual treats and soul stirring experience.

According to Tamil history, the citizens of Uvari were called Bharathar's of the Neithal (ocean) World. Uvari's historical name was Obeer Pattanam. It was ruled by the Pandyan dynasty.In the 1530s, Portuguese and Spanish missionaries from Goa arrived and converted many Bharathars to the Roman Catholic religion. The Portuguese priests, acting as godfathers, gave surnames such as Fernando to the converted. Pandya retains a fish on its flag, a symbol of this era.

When the ship docked at Uvari, the sailors placed the statue inside a hut in the village. In the 1940s, the villagers built a church with the original statue of St. Anthony holding the infant Jesus in his hand. St Anthony is said to perform many miracles daily for the people who flock there with faith in his intercession, therefore the church was upgraded to a shrine. Uvari is visited by Hindus and Christians from all over South India.

In search of: Grave of Indian King Raja Raja Chola - Was he murdered?

Read the full story here:
In this video, I am gonna show you my search for the grave of the Indian King Raja Raja. I was told that his tombstone lies in the small village of Udayalur. This is where he is rumored to have been buried or cremated.
When I visited this place, I was surprised to see a lingam which is about 2 feet tall and this elderly gentleman told me that the rest of the structure is buried underneath about 14 feet deep. It is a rather simple lingam with a diameter of only one and a half feet. He says this Lingam is the tombstone of Raja Raja. I asked him if he knew how Raja Raja died, and he told me he died naturally of old age and was cremated right here. Why would a great king have such a small, anonymous grave? You can see there are no inscriptions, no other carvings on this lingam or anywhere in this site. Remember, Raja Raja built the greatest temple in India which is now declared a world heritage site and his accomplishments and other information are inscribed all over the walls in many temples. So, I asked this gentleman, if there is any evidence to prove that this is in fact Raja Raja's grave.
He told me there used to be a pillar here and it was donated to a temple called Paalkulathu amman temple, a few miles away. He said that this pillar has inscriptions which proves that Raja Raja died here.
So, I decided to travel to this temple and take a look at this pillar myself. As soon as I reached the temple, I immediately spotted the pillar. The pillar does contain the word RajaRaja so it is obviously related to the King, but I was not able to completely understand what the inscription said. So, I took a lot of pictures and copied the entire writings on a scratchpad.
I contacted an epigraphist, who was able to tell me exactly what was written in this pillar. I've posted the entire inscription and it's translation on my website phenomenalplace.com and you can take a look at it if you are interested. I double checked this information with another expert as well.
What the inscription says is that the Royal Palace of Raja Raja Chola was renovated by 4 people. The inscription includes those 4 names and that is all the information we see on this pillar. The inscription has no reference to the death or grave of the King at all. This shows that the site of this lingam is probably not Raja Raja's grave and there is no actual evidence to claim so.
This raises the question of what happened to Raja Raja, how did he die? Where did his funeral take place? Think a moment, there are hundreds of inscriptions about Raja Raja's accomplishments, how he conquered various territories, how he built the great temple and even when he was born. But there is no information whatsoever about when or how he died and where he was buried or cremated.
So I decided to go back to Thanjavur to find out more about his death. I contacted several archeologists and they told me that the only reason why a King's death would not recorded is if the King died an unnatural death. So, if a King committed suicide or was murdered, then the ancient Tamils would not record that.
I spoke to a lot of locals in Thanjavur to see if anyone knew how he died. The locals tell a very different, but consistent story. It turns out that Raja Raja was actually murdered by a woman from Sri Lanka. Let's hear what this gentleman says. In 993 A.D, Raja Raja conquered half of Sri Lanka and the defeated King Mahinda V fled to the south, to avoid being captured. Unable to defeat Raja Raja in the battlefield, King Mahinda sent a Buddhist woman from Sri Lanka who slowly got into the inner circle of Raja Raja. When Raja Raja was standing on the 8th floor inspecting the progress of the Big Temple, she simply pushed him down. This fall killed him instantly.
People claim this is why the temple was not properly finished and his son created a whole new capital in a different city because he thought that this was a cursed place. This story also explains why his son Rajendra Chola went after Sri Lanka with a vengeance, conquering the entire island. He then found King Mahinda who was hiding, brought him back and kept him as a lifelong prisoner. Mahinda V died in prison around 1029 A.D. Although this story explains why there is no record of Raja Raja's death or his tomb, again, I have to point out that I don't have any actual evidence to prove this. So, my quest for Raja Raja's grave and the nature of his death remains incomplete but I'm gonna keep searching. I hope you liked this video, I am Praveen Mohan. Thank you for watching and talk to you soon.

EVERY THING ABOUT OOTY : OOTY INDIA THE QUEEN OF HILLS : 5 CENTS PLOTS & VILLAS IN OOTY
The origin of the name is obscure. The first known written mention of the place is given as Wotokymund in a letter of March 1821 to the Madras Gazette from an unknown correspondent.[5] In early times it was called OttakalMandu. Mund is the Anglicised form of the Toda word for a village, Mandu.[6] The first part of the name is probably a corruption of the local name for the central region of the Nilgiri Plateau.[7]
The stem of the name (Ootaca) comes from the local language in which Otha-Cal literally means single stone. This is perhaps a reference to a sacred stone revered by the local Toda people. The name probably changed under British rules from Udagamandalam to Ootacamund, and later was shortened to Ooty.[8]
Ooty is in the Nilgiri hills, meaning the blue mountains, so named due to the Kurunji flower which blooms every twelve years giving the slopes a bluish tinge.[5][9] Because of the mountains and green valleys, Ooty is known as the Queen of Hill Stations.[10]
