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 7 - Siddharasa II (A.D. 1233-34)

Siddharasa was the son of Kulottunga cholapattai Sakharadeva, who claims lordship over Ahischatrapura, middle country and Phana mandalam. His record at Mallam dated in the 18th year of Rajarajadeva records his gifts to Subrahmanaya in Tiruvambur situated in Okkattunadu in Kilaipattaiyanadu in Paiyarilangettam, a sub division of Jayangondacholamandalam.

His Political Relations

Siddharasa’s allegiance to the Cholas is attested by his record. If Rajaraja is Rajaraja III, the date of the record happens to be A.D. 1233-34. “It is not clear whether Kulotthnga Chelpattai Sekharadeva here in mentioned as the father of Siddhrasa is the same as Pattarasa of G 86.” Probably Sekhara and Siddharasa were later to Siddharasa of A.D. 1213-14 and ruled till A.D. 1233-34.

End

No successors of Siddharasa II are heard of. A Peddrasa of the Naga family is heard of from two records in Gudur taluq though he did not bear the characteristic Naga titles.After the decline of the Nagas, their territories were incorporated in the Telugu Chola kingdom.
