History
The founder of Haagalavaadi dynasty was Erimada Nayaka.[citation needed] He was succeeded by Sali Nayaka (1508-1544), who expanded the territory considerably. Inscription [where?] Ck 38, dated 1696, relates to these two leaders. Hagalavadi is the headquarters of Palegar lineage.[citation needed] Chikkanayakanahalli was founded by Erimada Nayaka and named after his brother as Chikkanayaka (younger brother).[citation needed]
