ASI has devoted exclusively Vol XXIV - more than 600 pages in (full scape) to this Volume, published in 1982. In the Introduction it mentions "Ramanujacharya, the great apostle of the Vasistadvaitham Srivaishnavism spent as many as 60 yrs of his long life as Aministrative head of the temple and effected many reforms .." ( He lived during 1017 for 120 years - 1136). No.1 is AR 69 of 1892 attributed to Aditya I (AD 871 - 907) to No: 189 is Chozha period .. upto post Kulothinga I.
ASI adds "To Kulotunga I belong the bulk of the inscriptions 26 to 108 -( 81 inscriptions ( !) and the majority of them are confirned 3rd parakaram range date from 10th to the 48th year .. reclamation of land. donor purchasing land from temple authorities for periodic supply of grain, flowers etc. "
Kulothunga I ruled from 1070 to 1122 AD with Vikramachozhan overlapping 1118 to 1135 AD. Vikrama's 13th year is AD 1130. There were grants almost every year and in 1140 AD there was a grant by Kulothunga II.as well.
It is evidenced that during the 120 years of lifetime of Sri Ramanujar uninterruptedly Chozha dynasty has given grants to Srirangam temple as could be seen from more 120 inscriptions .. ===============================

On our trip to Thanjavur, we got down about 10 Km after Tindivanam and found a recent stone pointing the direction of Ennayiram :: Kavi Kalamegam's birth place. There are stories that 8000 Jains were put on Kazhu. Another story that Ashta Saharsra Brahmins hail from this place. however as desired by SARVA SIVA PNDITHAR - GURU OF RAJENDRA I - a Siva temple was constructed .. nearby place is Esalam where copper plates confirming that Aditha Karikalan put Veerpandian's head at the Fort Entrance of Thanjai was found about 20 years back...
