Viriyāla is one of the ancient dynasties from India (Āndhradeśa or Andhra Pradesh), conquered and subjugated by Gaṇapatideva  (r. 1199-1262 A.D.) who let them rule their territory as an independent māṇḍalika.—The Viriyāla chiefs were the earliest of the Kākatīya feudatories. According to Siddheśvara-caritra of Kāse Sarvappa, Kākatīya Garuḍāṅka Beta in his early years was assisted by his aunt Kuntaladevi in regaining his fief. The Gūḍūr epigraph dated A.D. 1124 furnishes the information regarding the relations between the Kāktīyas and the Viriyāla chiefs. It is stated in the inscription that Viriyāla Erra established the Mudigoṇḍa Cālukya a chief Boṭṭu Beta over Koravi region after defeating his enemy Piṇḍiguṇḍa (Guṇḍa IV), the father of Beta I.
