Publisher's Synopsis

The nayakas (state administrators and revenue collectors) played a very important role in the Vijayanager kingdom, in south India, from the fifteenth to the early seventeenth century. This detailed statistical analysis of 1030 names of nayakas appearing in 568 inscriptions in Tamil Nadu (recording grants of various kinds over the period from 1326 to 1675) throws valuable light on the nature of the Vijayanagar state and the role of its key functionaries.
