The Saluva dynasty was the second dynasty to rule the

Kalachuris of Karnataka.[1] The term "Saluva" is known to lexicographers as "hawk" used in hunting. They later spread into the east coast of modern Andhra Pradesh, perhaps by migration or during the Vijayanagara conquests during the 14th century.[1]

The earliest known Saluva from inscriptional evidence in the Vijayanagara era was Mangaladeva, the great grandfather of

Tuluva Dynasty won the throne. They ruled almost the entire Southern India with Vijayanagara
as their imperial capital.

Saluva Narasimha Deva Raya, son of Saluva Gunda who was the Governor of Chandragiri, was the first Emperor of Vijayanagara from the dynasty ruling from 1486–1491 CE.[2] Narasimha spent his reign in relatively successful campaigns to subdue rebellious vassals throughout the empire and in unsuccessful attempts to stop the expansion of the Gajapati Empire. Narasimha also opened new ports on the empire's western coast so that he could revive the horse trade, which had fallen into Bahmani hands.

At his death in 1491, following the siege of Udayagiri and his own imprisonment there by Gajapatis, Narasimha left his empire in the able hands of his prime minister,

Vijayanagara empire
and reigned from 1503-1509.
