The king's wife, or one of his principal wives, was Mallâdevî, or Mallâmbikâ. The extent of his domination is shown by the fact that inscriptions of his reign are found in Mysore, Dhârwâr, Conjeeveram, Chingleput, and Trichinopoly.² He was a worshipper of Siva under the form Virûpâksha, but appears to have been singularly tolerant of other religions. The latest actual date of the reign afforded by inscriptions is October 15, A.D. 1399.³
