 Pudukkottai District - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Though Mahendravarma Pallava (604-630) inherited the Pallava empire from his victorious father Simhavishnu that reached up to the bank of the Cauvery, Cholamandalam could not be retained by his immediate successor, as it was over-run by the Pandyas of the further south.
The tract north and south of river Vellar were in the hands of the Mutharayar chieftains who till their annihilation by the resurgent Chola line of Vijayalaya, were owing alternate allegiance to the super powers.
This period is thus marked by the presence of rock cut cave temples of the Pandyas and Mutharaiyars.
