Gunda III

Gunda III (died c. 895 CE), also known as Gundyana or Gundana, was a member of the Kakatiya dynasty of southern India.

Gunda attacked Peruvanguru (a village near Nidadavolu) in order to create a diversion and allow his master to enter the Chalukya capital Vata (Vijayawada).

[4] According to the Mangallu inscription, Gunda III died a heroic death during a Rashtrakuta invasion of the Vengi Chalukya kingdom.

The Masulipatnam inscription states that Irimartiganda killed the Rashtrakuta general ('dandena) Gundyana, identified with Gunda III by modern historians, at Peruvanguru.

[5][3] Gunda III was succeeded by Erra, who ruled the Kurravadi region, possibly the area around present-day Kuravi in Telangana.
