This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 18.206.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

==Etymology==
The word ''Hegde'' is derived from the [[Old Kannada]] word ''Pergade'' which means ''chiefman'' or Headman of the village.<ref>((Cite web |url=http://www.ancestry.com/name-origin?surname=hegde |title=Hegde Family History |website=Oxford University Press |publisher=Dictionary of American Family Names ©2013, Oxford University Press))</ref>

== History and Evolution ==
The word originated as a title or rank in the [[Alupa dynasty]] of [[Tulu Nadu|Tulunadu]], which accepted the suzerainty of various dynasties, including the [[Kadamba dynasty|Kadambas]], [[Western Ganga dynasty|Gangas]], [[Chalukya dynasty|Chalukyas]], [[Rashtrakuta dynasty|Rashtrakutas]], [[Hoysala Empire|Hoysalas]], and [[Vijayanagara Empire|Vijayanagara]] Emperors. Local chiefs who held administrative positions such as village headmen and superintendents were awarded the title of ''heggaḍe'', which over time, became hereditary and evolved into a surname. Other similar titles included ''pergaḍe, hergaḍe, nadabova, nalagamiga, prabhu'', and ''[[Gounder|gavunda]]''. The Western Ganga kings also had officials known as ''manepergade'' and ''Sunka vergades''.

Local chiefs across ''Āluvakheda'' were known by different titles such as ''arasu, dore, ballāḷa, heggaḍe,'' and ''vergaḍe.'' The heggades were local chieftains who held small principalities in the ''Āluvakheda'' region of medieval Karnataka. They often engaged in armed conflicts with each other, which were resolved through intervention by higher authorities. Some heggades became independent rulers after the fall of the Vijayanagar Empire and European imperialism. For example, the Vitla principality was ruled by the [[Domba|Domba Heggade dynasty]] until the 20th century. The heggades followed matrilineal succession, passing the title to the present title-bearer's sister's son. Ravivarma Heggade, the last ruler of [[Vitla]], allied with the British against Mysore in the First and Second [[Anglo-Mysore Wars]] but regretted it when the British reduced his political power. He led a failed revolt to regain his hereditary throne and was hanged in 1800, along with eight other members of his family and court.

The Heggade, has its origins in the title of heggaḍe, which was equivalent to the ''guttedāra'', a semi-feudal landlord who owned vast tracts of lands and collected revenue on behalf of the State. The lands owned by the ''Heggades'' were leased out to tenants who cultivated food and cash crops, paying a portion of the produce as tax to the State. The remaining share of the produce would be kept by the landholder. The Heggades were also associated with [[Buta Kola|''bhūta'' worship]] and religious administration of shrines and temples. Today, the Heggade at [[Dharmasthala]] is a celebrated public figure and philanthropist who is a great patron of arts and culture in coastal Karnataka. Some of the Heggades were patrons of traditional Kannada fine arts such as music and dance.

The surname is also associated with the [[Havyaka Brahmins]], who settled in Karnataka and assimilated into the Kannada population, and some [[Bunt (community)|Tulu Bunts]] who financially back and promote Yakshagana shows.<ref>((Cite book |last=P |first=Gururaja Bhatt |title=Studies In Tuluva History And Culture |asin=B00U28GNZG))</ref><ref>((Cite book |last=Bhasker |first=Anand Saletore |title=Ancient Karnātaka, Volume I: History of Tuḷuva))</ref><ref>((Cite book |last=N |first=Shyam Bhat |title=South Kanara (1799-1860): A Study in Colonial Administration and Regional Response,))</ref><ref>((Cite book |last=B |first=Jagadeesh Shetty |title=The Agroeconomic Relations and Social Structure in Dakshina Kannada (A.D. 1000 to 1600)))</ref><ref>((Cite book |last=Naik |first=Shreedhara |title=Society and Politics in South Kanara A.D 1500-1800))</ref>
