6. Further, these inscriptions show that during the last years of Sevvappa's rule, his son Achyuta took a prominent part in the government of the state. He was actually made Yuvaraya some time before the death of his father ⁵, most probably before 1577; because there is an inscription of this year in which Achyuta appears as actually ruling over the whole kingdom. Sevvappa's last inscription is of the year 1572-73; it refers to the son of Timmappa Nayakkar of the chaturtha gotra ⁶. Achyutappa's first inscription is dated 1577; it is found in the southern outer wall of the second gopura of the temple of Brahathesvaraswami in Tanjore, and records that Achyutappa Nayaka gave some land on perpetual free tenure to goldsmiths ⁷.
