Ko Kizhan Adikal

Chola-Chera Perumal relations (c. 9th-10th centuries AD)

Ko Kizhan Adikal Ravi Neeli was the traditional title of the queens/princesses of the Chera Perumal kingdom in medieval south India.[1][2] It was initially assumed that Kizhan Adikal was a proper given name (and not a royal title).[1]

The title was used by Kerala princesses (in the Tamil country) even after their marriages to Chola princes.[3]
