"Amuktamalyada" is a famous book written by Krishnadevaraya, who was a ruler of the Vijayanagara Empire in South India during the 16th century. This Telugu language work is a literary masterpiece that combines mythological themes with descriptions of daily life and human emotions.

The Virupaksha Temple in Hampi is significant as one of the oldest and most important temples in the region. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva and has a rich history dating back to the 7th century. The temple is a major pilgrimage site and a symbol of the architectural and cultural heritage of the Vijayanagara Empire.

The physical features of Krishnadevaraya were described in detail by Portuguese traveler Domingo Paes in his account of the Vijayanagara Empire during his visit in the early 16th century. He noted Krishnadevaraya's impressive height, fair complexion, long beard, and majestic presence.

Hampi was chosen as the capital of Vijayanagara Empire due to its strategic location, natural defenses provided by the surrounding boulder-strewn landscape, and proximity to the Tungabhadra River for water supply and agriculture. Additionally, Hampi was already a flourishing center of trade and culture during that time, making it a suitable choice for a capital city.

Srikrishnadevaraya, who ruled the Vijayanagara Empire for more than two decades from the great city of Hampi died under mysterious circumstances. Some historians believe that he died of diabetes and bedsores. According to Portuguese traveler Domingo Peas, who wrote a detailed chronicle, Krishnadevaraya used to dink a glass of sesame oil every morning and exercise a lot. Some ayurveda physicians might have misguided Krishnadevaraya by giving wrong health tips. This practice, drinking oil everyday, might have caused diabetes. This disease usually leads to irreparable wounds, bed sores, that kill after they were infected.

Another view was Krihsnadevarya had contacted the syphilis disease, that spread from portuguese to Indians in the first part of the 16th century. But this view is not supported by any tangible material.

Tirumala Venkateswara Temple in the town of Tirumala in Chittoor district is a very important pilgrimage site for Hindus throughout India. It is the richest pilgrimage city of any religious faith in the world.[52] Its main temple is dedicated to the god Venkateswara. In 1517 Vijayanagara ruler Sri Krishna Deva Raya, on one of his many visits to the temple, donated gold and jewels,

Sri Krishna Deva is from Balija Caste. He is not from Yadava Caste. Yadava caste did no rule in south India at all. The word Yadava used is regarding a Vamsa and not caste at all.

Sri Krishan Deva Raya came from Tulava Vamsa .

These is some relationship between Bunts and Balijas. Both Kannada Balijas and Telugu Balija. This has to be researched .

Sri Krishna Deva Raya is not a Kshtriya at all as claimed by a lady on TV Channel.

Telugu is ancient language which is originated from proto dravidian languages

even Tamil too originated from proto dravidian, there is no direct relationship between Tamil and Telugu other than this. Telugu was wide spread in Tamilnadu due to Telugu naicker kings appointed by vijayanagara kingdom. during the era of naicker kings many telugus migrated to madurai,tanjore coimbattore and settled there. During this period carnatic music was flourished due to great contributions from Telugu saint tyagaraja who did all his compositions in Telugu.

There were vaggeyakaras from Telugu origin like syamasastri too contributed a lot.

Common:
*Islamic empires
*Founder of Delhi Sultanate Qutb-ud-din Aybak was Turkic while first Mughal emperor Babur was Turco-Mongol.
*Ruled most of northern India.
*Made significant contribution to Indo-Islamic art and culture.
*Bitter enmity with the Hindu Rajputs.
*Political and cultural centers in Delhi. Mughal Shah Jahan had briefly shifted his capital to Agra though.
*Both came to an end because of a non-Indian opponent. Delhi Sultanate was captured by Mughals while the Mughal Empire came to an end after Bahadur Shah Zafar was exiled to Burma by British.
*Both empires had issued jizya or tax on their non-Muslim subjects at various points of time.

Differences:
*Delhi Sultanate was ruled by a number of dynasties like Mamuk, Khilji and Lodhi throughout its history. Mughal Empire was ruled by a single dynasty.
*Delhi Sultanate lasted from 1206 to 1555, while Mughal dynasty lasted from 1526 to 1857.
*Turkish governor Ala-ud-Din Bahman Shah revolted against the Delhi Sultanate and created Bahmani Sultanate which ruled a major part of Southern India. Unlike the Sultanate, Mughal empire did not suffer much because of internal dissidence.
*Delhi Sultanate was relatively more successful in suppressing Hindu resistance. They successfully met resistance posed by major rival Vijayanagara Empire. The Mughal Empire had lost a major portion of its empire to Hindu Maratha warriors.
*Apart from Aurangzeb, Mughal emperors were more tolerant towards non-Muslims. The rulers of Delhi Sultanate were not.

Boya caste / Boya Naidu / Boyar Caste / Gangawaru Naidu

Nayak (title) Nayak, Nayaka, Nayakar, Nayakkar, Naik, Naiker, Naicker, Naickan, Naiken, Nayakkan, Naidu, Nayudu or Naidoo is a common title used by various caste and ethnic groups across India. They are all derivatives of the original Sanskrit Nayaka, meaning a leader. The community history of various groups that use this title differs from place to place.

Naidu Naidu (also spelt Nayudu or Naidoo) is a title used by various social groups of the Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu states of India. It is also used in Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Orissa and Chattisgarh. It is a Telugu derivation of the Sanskrit Nayaka, meaning "protector" or "leader". The word Naidu is etymologically related to the Tamil Naicker, the Nair of Kerala, Marathi Naik and Nayaks (Pattanayak) in Orissa.And it is considered one of the upper caste in south india which they claim kshatriya according to the varna system The term Naidu is the caste name and the title of the Kapu caste(Telaga/Balija Naidu)of Andhra Pradesh which accounts for about 28% of the population of Andhra Pradesh. Nayaka (Naidu) was an honorary title that was used by the people belonging to the other Telugu castes of Ekari (Pala Ekari) Boyar(warrior), Kamma, Mudi Raju, Koppula/Polinati Velama,Ayyaraka,gangavar(Boyar) etc in Andhra Pradesh and other states. It was used as a title denoting a village or lineage headman. Medieval Andhra dynasties like the Vishnukundins and Chalukyas and the recent ones like the Vijayanagara Empire conferred the title Nayaka / Nayakudu to a commander or Danda-nayaka (Army Commander) or a leader of a band of soldiers. The Nayaka title was originally conferred upon Telugu communities. In medieval times, the Kakatiya and Vijayanagara Kingdoms had many prominent nayakas from various castes. During the expansion of Vijayanagar Empire, the Nayak title was conferred upon non-Telugu speaking communities who served in the same function in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. This title is also used by other communities in Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The Nayaka title was conferred upon warriors who received land along with the title Nayaka as a part of the Nayankarapuvaram system for services rendered to the court during the Kakatiya dynasty. Nayaka was one among approximately 25 titles used by the Kakatiyas to create a new political infrastructure to undercut the authority of heredity regional elites.[1] The Nayankara system was also used by the Vijayanagar empire [2] wherein land was granted to a Nayaka or Palayakarrar (Polygar) on condition that they would place their military service at the disposal of the king.[3] Many communities later began using the Naick or Naidu surname. Edgar Thurston (Castes and Tribes of Southern India Vol. 5; p. 138) noted that "Naidu" or "Nayudu" title was in use by several Telugu castes in colonial India (in alphabetical order): Balija, Bestha, Boyar(warrior) caste, Ekari, gangawar(Boyar), Gavara,Kalingi, Kamma, Kapu, Mudirajus, Velama, Odde, Tottiyan, Reddy, Telaga, Uppiliyan, Idiga and Valmiki.

Peter the Great ruled the Russian empire 1682-1725 and was known as Russia's great modernizer. The Boyars were noblemen, members of the elite; wealthy land owners with civil and military power. They were known for their long beards which they wore proudly and with distinction. Peter stripped the Boyars of their nobility and power. He also stripped them of their traditional beards and long sleeves by ordering that they either shave them off, or else, pay a hefty beard tax. Under Tsar Peter's reign, no longer were the Boyars allowed to work for personal interest; the advancement of Russia now became the top priority.

Jewellery has always been a major part in our lifestyle. Right from the exhibits from the Indus Valley Civilisations to the paintings in the Ajanta caves to the latest excavations from the Vijayanagara Empire, our love for jewellery and the creativity and labour manifested in it has always been showcased with utmost grandeur and great importance. All Indian epics have references of gold, diamond and precious stone jewellery in abundance. There are few pieces of jewelleries that sail across centuries, with their love and fame not being tarnished to the least bit for several decades. The Jhumki earring is a classic example in this case

The Jhumki or Jhumka or Jhimki is a kind of earrings that have the shape of an inverted bell. A small tear drop shaped piece of metal usually hangs in the middle of the inverted bell. Sometimes tiny balls are strung across the rim of the inverted bell. When a woman wears a Jhumki and shakes her head, the tiny trinkets clang against each other and produce a lovely sound. This and the inverted bell like appearance has earned the name Jhumka/Jhumki for this ornament.

This piece of jewellery was originally worn in a large scale manner by Bharathanatyam dancers. The beauty of the earrings have since been captivating scores of girls and women so much that it has become a mainstream item of jewellery. Jhumkis are popular in gold, diamond, silver, kemp, precious stones, terracotta and even the ones made with silk threads. The shape of the Jhumki varies with each creator. From tiny drops to huge umbrella shapes, from squared jhumkis to conical jhumkis, the innovation put into the creation of Jhumki designs is ceaseless. The beauty of Jhumki is that it can match with any set of jewellery and also any Indian attaire.

From Karanphool Jhumka of Rajasthan to the Koda Kadukkan of Kerala, Jhumkis unite the jewellery love of all Indians. These beautiful set of earrings bring out the feminine beauty and grace in every woman in the most wonderful way possible.
