This small book aims at dealing with some aspects of the political and social history of the Andhras. Pattavardhanis and Katakarajas are the two important feudal families that served the Eastern Chalukyas loyally, which stood behind all their success. It can be said that no work of relative importance has been done to assess the contribution of these feudals, and in this study an attempt has been made to reconstruct the history of the aforesaid families. The remaining chapters in the book deal with the identification of Asanapura (an important ghatikasthana of the Chalukya period); genuineness of some inscriptions of the Chalukyasl and with the social status of the Brahmana and Vaisya communities in the Medieval Centuries of Andhradesa.
