Additional information

The Sambuvarayas were a subordinate chieftain lineage operating under Pallava and later Vijayanagara overlordship along the northern Tamil coast, centered around Padaiveedu. Their copper kasu issues are among the more poorly documented coinages of medieval South India — attribution to the dynasty itself took considerable scholarly effort, as the coins circulated in a region where multiple competing authorities struck nearly identical small coppers simultaneously.
