The \*Vikramaśōḻan-ulā\*¹³⁵ records that Rājamahēndra made for Ranganātha, the god of Śrīrangam, a serpent-couch set with many precious stones; and the \*Kōyiloḻugu\*, a late work on the antiquities and traditions of the Śrīrangam temple, though it knows nothing of the serpent-couch, mentions¹³⁶ many structural alterations in the temple as the work of Rājamahēndra, commemorated in the name Rājamahēndran-tiruvīdi. An inscription¹³⁷ of the twelfth year of Kulōttunga I from the Salem district states that in Rājamahēndra's reign there was a land revenue assessment in Kollimalai-nāḍu. The name of Rājamahēndra's queen, Lōkamahādēvi, seems to be preserved in a fragmentary inscription from Cidambaram.¹³⁸
