A.D. 933-942. Some inscriptions at Tiruvoṟṟiyūr, near Madras, in Saidapet Taluk of this period are dated between the twenty-seventh and thirty-fifth years of the Chōḷa king Parāntaka I. One of his twenty-ninth year (A.D. 935-36) shews that he was then on good terms with the Chēra, or Kēraḷa, king Vijayarāghava, for the latter’s daughter Iravi-Nili gave a lamp to the temple at that place. Parāntaka’s son Arinjaya is alluded to, being called ‘Arindagai’. (V.R. i, Chingleput, 1036-39; 168-170 of 1912.) The Kēraḷa family was then tributary to Parāntaka. (Above s.v. A.D. 922-23.)
