Ilamchetchenni (Iḷamcēṭceṉṉi; IPA:[iɭəmt͡ɕeːt͡ɕːsen̪ːi]) was an early Tamil king of the Chola dynasty during the Sangam period. He was a great warrior and ruled the Chola kingdom with Uraiyur as the capital. He married a Velir princess from Alundur and their child was Karikala Chola.[1] Ilamchetchenni Chola was succeeded by his son, Karikala Chola, who is considered one of the greatest among the Early Cholas.
