v2.c25.s1.178

There was a custom in the Tamil land of naming certain festivals after the king. Thus, according to an inscription dated in the thirty-fifth regnal year of Kōnērimaikonḍān Tribhuvana-cakravartin Perumāḷ Kulashēkara Dēva, "who was pleased to take every country," a gift of land was made to the temple of Brahmapurīśvara at Tirumayāṇam, for conducting a festival called Kulaśēgaran-sandi.²
