Position of Common Women’s Under the Imperial Cholas

Abstract

The age of Imperial cholas is an important epoch in the history of south India and in Tamil nadu. Women enjoyed a high status in the society. There were no restraints in their social life and activities. They showed keen interest in various social activities and patronised various kinds of art. The inscriptions of the period throw only scanty information about their status. [1] The royal woman played an important role in the socio-economic, political and cultural contribution of the country. [2] There are sample references about royal woman so this paper deals with common women’s of the Imperial cholas.
