(Redirected from Pallavaraiyan (title))

Pallavaraiyan was a title used by various officials in the medieval Chola and Pandya governments in present-day India. It was borne by persons from different communities like Bhoja, etc. and does not imply a relation to the erstwhile Pallava dynasty.

For example, there is a Perundaram (high dignitary), Irayiravan Pallavarayan, who bore the titles Mummudisola-Posan and Uttama Chola Pallavaraiyan at different times. This officer belonged to the family of Bhoja. Usually the Pallavaraiyan title was assumed by various officials along with the surname of the king like Arumori-Pallavaraiyan, Uttama Chola-Pallavaraiyan, SundaraPandya-Pallavaraiyan, etc.
