Part 6 - Teilokyamallaraju (A.D. 1159)

Trilokyamallaraju was the son of Nambaya II. His only record is from Draksharama dated A.D. 1159. His reign lasted onlyifor three years, as Bhimaraja, his successor was. ruling in A.D. 1161. Trailokyamallars prasasti has some new titles besides the ordinary Parichched titles. The opithet Nambhanigandhavarana i.e. the mast elephant ofNanbha perhaps implies that Trailokyamalla was a deserving son of the father i.e. Nambha.

Trailokyamalla’s name suggests that he is probably named after the Western Chalukya Vikramaditya VI to whom his father Nambha was a subordinate prior to the restoration of the Chola powers in Vengi.
