D. 180. \[Conjectural date for the death of Karikāla Chōḷa and accession of his elder son Neḍumuḍi-Kiḷḷi who was also called by many other names in the Tamil Epics, such as ‘Vaḍivēr-Kiḷḷi,’ ‘Velvēr-Kiḷḷi’ and ‘Māvaṇ-Kiḷḷi.’ He also fought with the allied Chēras and Pāṇḍyas and won a battle against them at Kārīyāṟu. Neḍumuḍi-kiḷḷi had a younger-brother Seṭ-Śenni-Nalam Kiḷḷi who revolted and besieged his King at Uraiyūr and Āmūr, near Trichinopoly. The Chēra King Śenguṭṭuvan, however, took the field against Nalam-kiḷḷi and rescued Neḍumuḍi-kiḷḷi after fighting a battle at Nērīvāyil when, so say Chēra records, he defeated nine ‘Kiḷḷis’ or Chōḷa royal princes. - [Previous: c8.54](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sewell-1932.c8.54) - [Next: c8.56](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sewell-1932.c8.56) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sewell-1932.c8) ## Linked texts (1) - [Uṟaiyūr](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.uraiyur) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sewell-1932.c8.55](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.sewell-1932.c8.55) · Pramāṇa
