Kotikasya is a legendary character who is mentioned in the Mahabharata. Kotikasya was the son of Suratha, Raja of the Saiva tribe. He was the friend and follower of Jayadratha. When Draupadi entered into good-humored conversation with him, she laid aside the branch of Kotikasya which she held in her hand. The branch of Kotikasya is inferred that such a branch was used as a signal to warn off trespassers. Kotikasya is termed as the chief of the Sivis. Sivis is a tribe mentioned by the historians of Alexander's Indian conquests.
