Part 28 - Sangamaraju (A.D. 1398-1420)
The relationship of Sangama to his predecessors is not known. His earliest inscription is from Simhachalam dated A.D. 1398 recording gifts for his own merit. In A.D. 1399, Sangama made further grants at Simhachalama. Though none of Sangama’s records dated after A.D. 1399 are available his reign may have lasted till A.D. 1420—the earliest date for his successor Gangaraja.
His Political Relations
Sangama is mentioned as Jantarnati Samgamarajulu in his records. He must have owed allegiance to Narasimha IV, the Ganga emperor. It is probable that Sangama was defeated by the Reddis of Rajahmundry who in this period led expeditions of conquest into southern Kahnga.
