Match the following Titles of the Kings:
| Dynasty | Title |
|---|---|
| (a) Pandiyar | 1. Aadhavan |
| (b) Cherar | 2. Thithiyan |
| (c) Chola | 3. Chezhiyan |
| (d) Aai | 4. Sembian |
Codes (a), (b), (c), (d):
Answer: B
The titles match as Pandiyar with Chezhiyan (3), Cherar with Aadhavan (1), Chola with Sembian (4) and Aai with Thithiyan (2), the code 3 1 4 2.
The other codes give Aadhavan or Sembian to the wrong dynasty, so they are incorrect.
Pandya kings carried the title Chezhiyan, Chera kings were called Aadhavan (the sun), Chola kings were called Sembian, and the chieftains of the Aai line had the title Thithiyan. This is the pattern in which the Sangam poets address the three crowned kings and the minor chiefs, so the codes that give Sembian to the Pandyas are rejected.
