It is #fascinating to read #Hultzsch books on South Indian Inscriptions published by the #ASI in 1899. In volume III, he has written in detail about many temples.

In chapter one, he has recorded most inscriptions in the #Ukkal #Vishnu #temple called Pūvaṇimāṇikka-Viṣṇugraham, i.e., the temple of ‘Bhuvanamāṇikya’. This word means, 'the ruby of the world'.

The deity of the temple is #Tiruvāymoḻi #Dēvar. This is the name of that portion of #Nālāyiradivyaprabandham which was composed by Śaṭagopa alias Nammāḻvar.
