Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Talk:Musunuri Nayakas, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button   located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 21:16, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Also, please see HELP:TALK for a quick review of how to indent posts on talk pages. Please do this now, before you post another talk page message. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 21:20, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply


I appreciate you helping me get my bearings. I know we are working through disagreements on the Kamma article, which I hope will come to fruition in the end because I still hope we will both be able to get good faith work done since Sitush is taking a break from Wikipedia. I appreciate it. Thank you Kautilya3 --Vivek987270 (talk) 21:23, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

ARBIPA sanctions alert

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Musunuri Nayaks are Kammas Evidence

edit

Kautilya3 and Ventrun I have found the specific quotes that was requested to keep the Kamma tag on the Musunuri Nayak page. Since my editing privileges are gone, I sincerely request that you guys post these citation on the page, along with keeping Talbot's work.

“The Musunuri family probably hailed from the village Musunuru in the Krishna district. They belonged to the fourth caste (Kamma).” Page 168 [History of the Andhras upto 1565 A. D. Durga Prasad] www.katragadda.com/articles/HistoryOfTheAndhras.pdf

"Within a short time afterwards, the Andhras no doubt liberated themselves from the oppresive Turkish rule. But Andhradesa was once again partitioned between four mutually warring kingdoms - Musunuri (Kamma) kingdom of Warangal . . .” Page 82 [Socio-cultural history of ancient and medieval Andhra by B.S.L Hanumantha Rao] https://books.google.com/books?id=GkNuAAAAMAAJ&q=Socio-cultural+history+of+ancient+and+medieval+Andhra+by+B.S.L+Hanumantha+Rao&dq=Socio-cultural+history+of+ancient+and+medieval+Andhra+by+B.S.L+Hanumantha+Rao&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjTotGb5NzhAhVvh-AKHW2nAtgQ6AEwAHoECAIQAg

On page 38, of A Forgotten Chapter of Andhra History Professor Mallampalli Sōmaśēkharaśarma states "Prolaya Nayaka or Prolanedu of the Musunuri Family was a young and darling chieftain born in the caturthakula or the forth case. He was the grandson of a Kamma Nayakudu in the service of the Kakatiyas." This view is iterated on page 33 as well. https://books.google.com/books?id=AnxAAAAAMAAJ&q=Mallampalli+S%C5%8Dma%C5%9B%C4%93khara%C5%9Barma&dq=Mallampalli+S%C5%8Dma%C5%9B%C4%93khara%C5%9Barma&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwil1eje49zhAhUQSN8KHTT1CmwQ6AEwAXoECAMQAg

NOTE: (I did not put Kamma inserts in there. They are part of the quotes. Feel free to check through the book links attached.)

Outside of these specific quotes and pages by three notable Andhra Historians and Professors, Etukuri Balaram Murthy also mentioned that Musunuris are from the fourth-caste of Kammanadu (which have to be Kammas). In, Vedasara Ratnavali, Sastry stated the same thing Book on page 21 Link: (https://archive.org/details/VedasaaraRatnavaliPartII). The town Musunuru is in Krishna District, so that itself validates the claim. Moreover, the inscription issued by Musunuri Gundaya (South Indian Inscriptions Volume 4, Page 146) mentions he belong to Chathurtha varna of Kammanadu. https://archive.org/details/SouthIndianInscriptionsVol041923

There is too much evidence to exclude that Andhra Historians believe that Musunuri Nayaks are Kammas. Three Direct quotations, two explicit mentions in books, and primary sources of inscriptional and geographical evidence.
