tales of uraiyur
  • an uraiyur king nantha sola's daughter kamalavalli fell in love with
    aranganathar of srirangam and merged with his idol

    the temple for them built by her father is in uraiyur facing north and
    loking straight at rangam.


    but the more important tale is of the curse of the sandstorm

    saramaa munivar found fault with the chola here and cursed that rains
    of sand would drown his capital
    man mari peyyattum

    the area from manachanallur to uraiyur was reportedly submerged in sand.

    so similar to the plaugues of egypt isnt it?
