v2.c12.9

Mr. F. M. Schnitger draws attention to a reference to Tarumapur in an inscription of Kulottunga (S.I.I., Vol. III, Part 2, p. 159). It is about ten miles north of Cape Comorin, the region from which Agastya worship spread to the Archipelago. Schnitger finds in the name Taruma an additional argument for the southern origin of Pūrṇavarman (T.B.G., 1934, p. 187.).
