Gangavadi

Gangavadi is a historical region in southern Karnataka, India, corresponding broadly to the present-day districts of Mysuru, Mandya, and Chamarajanagar. It formed the heartland of the Western Ganga dynasty (c. 350–1000 CE) and retained its identity under later dynasties such as the Cholas, Hoysalas, and the Vijayanagara Empire. The name is preserved in inscriptions, literary references, and local tradition, though it is no longer used as an administrative division.
