Reddi

The Reddi dynasty ruled coastal and central Andhra from 1325 to 1448, rising out of the collapse of the Kakatiya kingdom. Its founder Prolaya Vema Reddi made Addanki his capital after Warangal fell to the Delhi Sultanate in 1323. His successor Anavota Reddi moved the court to the hill fort of Kondavidu, and a junior branch was planted at Rajahmundry in 1395.

The kings were noted fort-builders and patrons of Hinduism. Prolaya Vema repaired the Srisailam temple, built the Narasimha temple at Ahobilam and is credited with 108 Shiva temples. In 1424 the Vijayanagara Empire annexed Kondavidu, and around 1448 the Gajapatis of Orissa took Rajahmundry, ending the dynasty's independent rule.
