Nedunjcheliyan I (c. 270 BCE) (Tamil: நெடுஞ்செழியன்) was a Pandya king. He has been given the title Aariya Padai kadantha Nedunjezhiya Pandiyan (A Pandyan King, who defeated the Aryan intrusion).[citation needed] Nedunjcheliyan I was also the Pandya king of the epic Silappatikaram authored by the Sangam poet Ilango Adigal who later died of a broken heart along with his queen consort Kopperundevi.[1][2]
His name is present in the Mangulam inscriptions of 3rd century BCE. The inscriptions mentions that workers of Nedunchezhiyan I, a Pandyan king of Sangam period, (c. 270 BCE) made stone beds for Jain monks.[3]
