        The Kadamba dynasty established in Karnataka is considered to be the earliest dynasty.
        Their capital was Banavasi which is in the present-day North Canara district.
        Mayur Sharma was the founder and great king of this dynasty.
        When Pallava king Shivaskanda Varma did Mayura Sharma, then he adopted the Kshatriya lifestyle and became Mayuravarma from Mayura Sharma.
        He defeated the Pallavas in battle and established the Kadamba Empire.
        They are all the pride of Kannada.
