They ruled Northern [[Andhra Pradesh|Andhra]] with Pithunda, near [[Machilipatnam]] as the capital after the Ikshvakus around the third century.{{sfn|P.R.Rao|1993|p=24}} Jaya Varma was the only known Bruhatpalayana ruler. A princess of his family was married to the [[Andhra Ikshvaku]] king. His Kingdom included Musala Taluk as far as [[Gudivada]], Kolleru and northern parts of [[Guntur]]. He gave the village of Patur in [[Tenali]] Taluk to eight [[Brahmin]]s. After his death the [[Ananda Gotrikas]] occupied his territory to the south of the Krishna river and the [[Salankayana]]s took his territory north of the river.{{sfn|P.R.Rao|1993|p=24}}<br /> <br /> The name of the dynasty is derived from the words &#039;&#039;Bruhat&#039;&#039; (Vastness) and &#039;&#039;Palayana&#039;&#039; (Moving).<br /> <br /> The Hathigumpha inscription mentioned that Pithunda was destroyed by [[Kharavela]] (180 BCE) of Kalinga. The city of Pithunda is referred to as metropolis in one of Ptolemy&#039;s works. Jayavarma, the only king known of the dynasty, ruled Krishna district with Pithunda as his capital between A.D. 270–285. A copper plate grant in the form of an order issued by Jayavarma to the governor of Kuduru {{lang|pra|ahara|italic=no}} (district) was discovered at Kondamudi, near Tenali at around A.D.280 which describes his victorious camp at Kudura (Guduru near Machilipatnam). He has granted this land in favour of a number of Brahmins. A charter in Prakrit language issued by him describes that he is the devotee of Maheswara and he called himself as Raja. They had been subdued by Pallavas.{{sfn|P.R.Rao|1993|p=24}}<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{APhistory}}<br /> {{reflist|30em}}<br /> <br /> ===Bibliography===<br /> {{ref begin}}<br /> * {{cite book |author=P.R.Rao |title=Ancient and Medieval History of Andhra Pradesh |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=wENuAAAAMAAJ&amp;q=Ancient+and+Medieval+History+of+Andhra+Pradesh+by+P+R+RAO |year=1993 |publisher=Sterling publishers pvt. ltd. |isbn=978-81-207-1522-6 }}<br /> {{ref end}}<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Brihatpalayana}}<br /> [[Category:People from Guntur district]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{India-royal-stub}}</div>
