This book recounts the History of the Andhra Pradesh Country from 1000 to 1500 A.D. including many dynasties (for example. the Reddis of Korukonda and the Eruva Chola of Rajahmundry)....

Part 38 - Visvesvara raju (A.D. 1427)

Visvasvara’s relationship to Gangaraju is not known. His inscription from Srikurmam dated A.D. 1427 mentions him as Visvaraju and Visvesvararaju of Silavamsa and registers gifts by his queen Singamadevi, the daugther of Virajayanta of the Matsyas of Oddadi. The mention by the epigraphist of Vatsaraju is a mistake for Visvaraju. Another record of the same year at Simhachalam mentions Visvanatharaju of Nandapura and Silavamsa gotra and queen Singamadevi. Visvanatha and Singama are identical with Visvesvara and Singama of the above record.

His Political Relations

Probably Visvesvara ruled with Gangaraju. The upper limit for him is not known. As he was the son-in-law of Jayanta of the Matsyas, it is probable that the Silas and the Matsyas were on terms of alliance in this period.
