Vijayanagara-era Inscriptions Found In Seshachalam Forests, Tirupati.

Two inscriptions dating back to the Vijayanagara-era have been found by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) officials in the Seshachalam reserve forest in Tirupati district of Andhra Pradesh.

The inscriptions, discovered during a recent survey, have been confirmed by experts to belong to the 16th century. 

Engraved in Telugu, Kannada, and Tamil, they provide valuable insights into the administration of the Vijayanagara Empire. 

According to the inscriptions, during the reign of Emperor



Sadasiva Deva Raya, land grants were made for the conduct of daily rituals and offerings at the Parashurameswara temple in Gudimallam village of Yerpedu mandal.

These inscriptions serve as important historical records, offering valuable information about temple administration, land grant practices, governance, and the socio-economic conditions of that era. 

This discovery highlights the rich historical heritage of the Sadasiva Kona region and marks another significant milestone in archaeological research.
