Yadava

The Yadavarayas were a Telugu chiefly line who held Chandragiri and Narayanavanam in the hill country around Tirupati. They claimed descent from Yadu and styled themselves Yadavas. Around the year 1000 Immadi Narasimha Yadavaraya built the fort at Chandragiri, and the family's endowments were inscribed on the walls of the Venkateswara temple at Tirumala.

In the mid-1310s the Yadavaraya of Chandragiri joined the Hoysala king Ballala and the chief of Padaividu against the Kakatiya king Prataparudra, only to be defeated by his general Peda Rudra. Rulers such as Sriranganatha Yadavaraya still left inscriptions in the following decades, but Chandragiri passed to the Vijayanagara Empire in 1367 and the line lost its separate rule.
