History

The Chera dynasty, known as Keralaputra, ruled parts of present-day Kerala and Tamil Nadu from the early historic period. They were documented as early as the third century BCE and were significant in maritime trade, particularly in spices like black pepper, until the end of the early historic period in southern India.
