?-1044 King of the Chola dynasty of southern India. Reigned 1016-44. After two years of joint rule with his father, Rajaraja I, he ascended to the throne and continued to exert his influence both in India and abroad for about 30 years. Following in the footsteps of his predecessor, he expanded his territory, conquering Kerala and Ceylon in the south. He also invaded the southern Chalukya dynasty in the north, and entered Bengal from the Kalinga Kingdom. In 1023, he defeated its king, Mahipala, and reached the banks of the Ganges. As a result, the king called himself Gangaikonda (he who had taken possession of the Ganges) and called the new capital he built in the lower Caveri basin Gangaikondacholapuram (the capital of the Chola who had taken possession of the Ganges).

?‐1044 南インドのチョーラ朝の国王。在位1016‐44年。父王ラージャラージャ1世と共同で2年間統治したのち王位につき,その後約30年間インド内外に威勢を高めた。先代に続いて領土拡大を行い,南方ではケーララ,セイロンの攻略を続けた。また,北方ではチャールキヤ朝南部の地に侵攻し,さらにカリンガ王国からベンガルに入り,1023年にはその王マヒパラを破ってガンガー(ガンジス)河畔にまで至った。そのため王はみずからガンガイコンダ(〈ガンガーを手に入れた〉者)と称し,またカーベーリ下流域に造営した新都をガンガイコンダチョーラプラム(〈ガンガーを手に入れたチョーラの都〉)と呼んだ。 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
