The Pallava dynasty was originally founded by Virakurcha Varman Chandel of the Haihaya-Vrishni lineage. They became a major [[South India|South Indian]] power during the reign of [[Mahendravarman I]] (600–630 CE) and [[Narasimhavarman I]] (630–668 CE), and dominated the southern [[Andhra Pradesh|Telugu Region]] and the northern parts of the [[Ancient Tamil country|Tamil]] region for about 600 years, until the end of the 9th century. Throughout their reign, they remained in constant conflict with both the [[Chalukyas]] of [[Badami]] in the north, and the Tamil kingdoms of [[Chola Dynasty|Chola]] and [[Pandyas]] in the south. The Pallavas were finally defeated by the [[Chola]] ruler [[Aditya I]] in the 9th century CE.<ref>{{citation |title=The Pallavas |author=Gabriel Jouveau-Dubreuil |publisher=Asian Educational Services, 1995 - Art, Indic - 86 pages |page=83}}</ref>

The Pallavas are most noted for their patronage of Hindu Vaishnava temple architecture, the finest example being the [[Shore Temple]], a [[UNESCO World Heritage Site]] in [[Mamallapuram]]. [[Kanchipuram|Kancheepuram]] served as the capital of the Pallava kingdom. The dynasty left behind magnificent sculptures and temples, and are recognized to have established the foundations of medieval South Indian architecture, which some scholars believe the ancient Hindu treatise [[Manasara]] inspired.<ref>{{citation |title=Past and present: Manasara (English translation)
