Thus the local epigraphic records reveal that a prosperous community of Vaiśyas also known as Iḷaṅkōkkaḷ lived in the area from before 7th cent. a.d. down to at least the 13th cent. a.d. The present inscription of the 2nd cent. a.d. is the earliest record of an Iḷaṅkō from this village donating a Jaina hermitage.
