A brief study on the Pandiyas (Paandiyar) of the "post" third Sangam Period of Tamil Nadu

Under construction

Cheliyan Dynasty

(7) Nambi Neduncheliyan (A.D.90-112)

With the demise of Ukkirap Peruvaluthi came the end of 'Peruvaluthi' line of Paandiyar dynasty, and the rise of the 'Cheliyan' line of the same dynasty in Paandiya Nadu. It appears that the next successor to the Paandiyan throne was king Nambi Neduncheliyan.

(8) Thalai Alanganaththu Neduncheliyan (A.D.112-A.D.134)

He was possibly the son of Nambi Neduncheliyan who fought at Thiru-Aalangaanam defeated seven kings the Cheral, Sembiyan, Thithiyan, Elini, Erumaiyuran, Ilango Venmaan, and Porunan. This Cheliyan also captured Musiri the seaport city of Cheras and seized the treasured statue of the city. He also defeated two great kings at Koodal Paranthalai, and the king Pulli at Vengadam, king Kaari of Mullur, kings Oori and Seralan.

This above are confirmed by the following references
