Kota Vamsa

Kota Vamsa was a medieval dynasty which ruled in parts of the modern-day Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. The Kotas belonged to Dhananjaya gotra. Kota chiefs ruled Kammanadu with Dharanikota as capital. Kota Kings belonged to the Shudra varna.[1][2] After they became the rulers, they came to be recognized as Kshatriyas.[3] They had marital links with the Kakatiyas. Ganapatideva's daughter Ganapamadevi was married to the grandson of Kota Keta II.[4]
