The anxiety which the people felt for performing purificatory ceremonies of temples is illustrated in an epigraph dated A.D. 1432. In the reign of Dēva Rāya II, when the champion over three kings, Hiriyakaṭṭige Amareya Nāyaka's sons Guṇḍappa Nāyaka and Amareya Nāyaka were ruling Vijaya-Sōmanāthapura which is Nuggiyahaḷḷi, the manager of his (Hiriyakaṭṭige Amareya Nāyaka's ?) house, the Eḷanhaṅkanāḍ-prabhu (with epithets) Jāla Bhīma Śeṭṭi's son Chikka-Bhīmaṇṇa, assembling the Brahmans of Nuggiyahaḷḷi, caused the samprōkshaṇa of the god Sadāśiva to be performed.³
