General Description The Nayaks of Thanjavur originally ruled the Tamil Nadu region of Thanjavur on behalf of the Vijayanagara kings. After the decline of the Vijayanagara, the Nayaks of Thanjavur became independent rulers sometime in the 1530s CE. The Nayaks of Thanjavur had their capital in the city of Thanjavur and the major commercial port was at Nagaputtinam. [1] [2] The Nayaks of Thanjavur had valuable trade connections with the Dutch and the British in which they imposed taxes on the import and export of foreign goods. Trade agreements between the Nayaks of Thanjavur and the Dutch and British were recorded on various inscriptions giving insight into the particulars of these arrangements. .” [3] [2] The rule of the Nayaks of Thanjavur lasted until the 1670s when the Nayaks of Maduri overthrow the last Thanjavur nayak. The rule over Thanjavur by the Nayaks of Maduri was brief, and they were eventually succeeded by the Maratha rulers. [4]
