Odanad also known as Onattukara, Onad, Kayamkulam, Kallikoilon and Chirava Svaroopam) was a feudal state in late medieval Kerala. It was established in the 11th century, and disestablished in 1746 when it became part of Travancore after Venad King Marthanda Varma's northern expedition. At the time of its dissolution, it was composed of the present-day taluks of Mavelikkara, Karthikapally, Chengan

ur in the Alappuzha district and Karunagapally in the Kollam district.[2] In the 15th century, the capital of Odanad was moved from Kandiyoor-Mattom, Mavelikkara to Eruva and Krishnapuram, near Kayamkulam, which led to the state being called Kayamkulam. After this shift, Kayamkulam became the commercial capital of Onattukara, while Mavelikkara remained the cultural capital. Odanad was controlled by Nair lords, among whom the ruler of Kayamkulam was the most prominent.
