Sethiathoppu (Tamil: [seːttijaːttoːppɯ]) is a panchayat town in Bhuvanagiri, Tamil Nadu. It is situated on a crossroads of the Chennai–Thanjavur (National Highway 24) highway. The town was established as a civilian town by the Cholas in the 11th century C.E. According to Tamil scholars, Sethiathoppu was formed as a settlement when Chola king Rajendra I moved his capital from Thanjavur to Gangaikonda Cholapuram, which lies 20 km south.
The town is named after Sethiyaar, a landlord, who used to own land in Thoppu, on the banks of the Vellar River.
