Abstract:Examines the role played by one family of Telugu chiefs, of the Aravidu clan, as propagators of Shri-Vaishnavism and benefactors of temples in the Vijayanagara kingdom in the mid-16th century. A large number of epigraphs, inscriptions, and portrait-sculptures offer evidence of spectacular benefactions here, which are studied at some length.
