Abstract:

In these early studies on the history and culture of the Kumta region of Uttara Kannada district, the rulers we see the contribution made by the chief. The political, economic, social, religious and cultural details of the Vijayanagara and Vijayanagara Uttara Kannada periods are fairly well known. In the Kumta region, we find the ancient famous place Gokarna in the legends of the Ramayana and Mahabharata periods. Several inscriptions have come to light in this region, including those from the Kadamba period to the Vijayanagara period. They show donations to Buddhist, Jain, Shaiva and Vaishnava temples in this region.
