¹ No. 328 of 1923 summarized in *A.R.E.*, 1924, part ii, para 35. There were however several places of the name Kaṇṇanūr. There is a reference to Kaṇṇāṭṭarasar in No. 20 of 1912 (from the Tinnevelly district) of the fourth year. This led Mr. Krishna Sastri (*A.R.E.*, 1912, part ii, para 35) to believe that the Hoysalas under Vīra Rāmanātha were still occupying the Tamil country and interfering with the Pāndyas. In the absence of the text of the inscription it is not possible to check the validity of Mr. Sastri's inference; but it is against the general trend of affairs after the accession of Jaṭāvarman Sundara Pāndya (A.D. 1251).
