Purakkad Rajas: The Chempakassery Rulers of Ambalappuzha and the Maritime Heart of Central Kerala
Purakkad lies in present-day Alappuzha district, close to Ambalappuzha and the Kuttanad backwater world. This region was not merely a quiet coastal settlement. It stood between the Arabian Sea, the inland waterways and the fertile paddy lands of Kuttanad. Such geography gave the rulers access to maritime trade, river transport, agrarian wealth and military movement through boats and canals.
