Kannavath Sankaran Nambiar (c. 1760 – 27 November 1801) was the prime minister or ''Sarvadikaryakar'' of Pazhassi Raja. The word "Kannavath" means "that which is associated with Kannavam" - Kannavam is the name of a village which is located in Thalasseri taluk of Kannur district. But "Kannavam" is also the name of the dominant feudal Nair (Nambiar) clan resident to this village and this Nair clan once possessed this village along with vast estates in neighborhood that was estimated at 400 square miles.〔''Malabar Manual'', William Logan, 1887〕 Kannavath Nambiars were vassals of Kottayam Raja and were once the richest landlords in whole of Northern Malabar. Sankaran was born into this feudal clan.〔 == Early life ==
As a teenager Sankaran joined Pazhassi Rajah's war effort to oust Mysoreans from Kottayam. Rajah was pleased with his courage, determination, loyalty and also appreciated his skill in diplomacy and administration - so he appointed him as his prime minister. One of Pazhassi rajah's main headquarters was located in Todikulam which was in heart of Sankaran's fief. Much of Sanakaran's fief was covered with mountains and woods inhabited by Kurichia tribesmen who proved to be of great help in war with Mysore and then British.〔〔''Kerala Simham'', Sardar KM Panikkar, 1941〕〔''Pazhassi Samarangal'', KKN Kurup, 1986〕
