1189 CE

The throne of the western Chalukya dynasty, earlier usurped by Bijjala, leader of the feudatory Kalacuri family, becomes the object of a contest among Bijjala’s successors, allowing Chalukya dynasty Somesvara IV to reverse the usurpation after a decade.

The overall effort by Somesvara IV to rebuild the Chalukya empire fails and the dynasty is ended by the Seunas, who in alliance with rulers dominating the Telugu-speaking regions of the Deccan drive Somesvara IV into exile in Banavasi 1189.
