[@Ranjan_Mohanty]

@@me-id6ok because that part of Kalinga or later Utkala was conquered by Krishnadeva Raya and merged with the Vijayanagar Empire. For a similar reason you will find many people with Odia surnames in the Medinipur districts of West Bengal who are fluent Bangla speakers but don't know a word of Odia. There are also Odia populations in Jharkhand and Chattisgarh whose regions could not be assimilated into Odisha, or Orissa, state when it was formed in 1936. To this day those areas are called "Bicchinanchal".

Good detailing about Hathigumpha inscription of Udaygiri Khandgiri caves situated in Bhubanshwar. Not only that the inscription starts with the "Namokar Maha Mantra" which is core Mantra of Jainism since ages, the caves situated at Udaygiri and Khandgiri were excavated by King Kharavela and later by his successors for the Jain Saints. The Khandgiri hill has many caves which has several idols of Jain Tirthankara engraved in them. The Nav muni gumpha, Bara Bhuji Gumpha, etc. have Jain Tirthankara idols situated therein. The Barahbhuji Gumpha has idols of Jain Tirthankara and the Shasan Devis of those tirthankaras which are now been worshipped as Maa Barabhuja. Just a request to all that we should not convert the original identity of the historical places that have been given by our ancestors to us and these are treasures for us. Thanks

Khara means salt or salty, vela means coast. Even today a beach is called "Bela Bhumi" in Odia. Kharavela therefore means "Salt Coast" or "Salty Coast", a logical name for some one whose kingdom bordered the sea.

About to start college soon,thinking of choosing history or philosophy as my major if I do BA.

After that we came under the service of the nizams who bestowed upon my paternal great-great-great grandfather the 'Jagīr' of Gogi in modern-day Karnataka. The name Sayyid/Sayed/Syed or any of it's other variations means "Lord" or "baron" in arabic, and is conferred on the descendants of Prophet Muhammad through Husayn .

The oldest mention of the Tamil Confederacy gets it's mention from Hathigumpa Inscription The Tamira Confederacy: The Mauryas, ruled Kalinga before Kharavela, and they find mention in Tamil Sangam literature which talks of the parasols, banners and chariots of the Mauryas; Mauryas cutting paths in mountains for their chariots to pass; Refers Mauryas as strangers (vamba moriyar) who came with a desire to conquer the South. So, these are proofs of Mauryan military ambitions in Tamil Regions. But there are no records of a Mauryan conquest of the Tamil region. Maybe, because of the Mauryan threat, the Tamil kings banded together, and their unity acted as a deterrent. This is the confederacy that Kharavela perhaps broke, roughly around 173 or 172 BCE. If the confederacy was 113 years old at that time, then it must have come into existence around 285 or 286 BCE, which would be the time of the Mauryan ruler Bindusara, the father of Emperor Asoka.

[@bibhurout3611]

My theory is that Kharabela existed before Mouryan Empire. That's why there was a mention of Nanda king but not any Mouryan king. Another point is that, Jainism was very popular until Chandrgupta Mourya, because Kharabela was also a follower of Jainism. We don't see many kings after this period. 3rd point is Kali ga was a strong empire until the Kalinga war by Ashoka. It is not so believable that after a bloody defeat in this war Kalinga could became power again in 100 years. Most probably the Kharabela's empire existed until the Kalinga war.
