seat of the Kimakoti pitha for about two centuries past. The Kamakoti pttha of Kumbakonam must at the time of our grant have been situated at Kanchi. The migration of the Samkaracharya from Conjeeveram to the Kumbhakoņam matha must have occurred later than 1710 A.C. The tradition current in the Kumbhakopam malha is to the effect that Raja Sarabhoji of Tanjore built it for the Chandramanļisvara Swamin, the deity worshipped at the matha. This is corroborated by a stone inscription in the matha of the year 1743 Baka=1821 A.O. Thus from the evidence available it would appear that the Kumbhakoņem matha was in existence only from the 19th century, while that at Tiruvanaikaval must have continued in the possession of the Swămin at least from between the 13th century and 1710 A.C., as the present epigraph shows.

This is not correct. A.D. 1821 was the date of the building of the new matha by king Barabboji of Tanjore, the older one, according to tradition, having been erected by his grandfather Pratapa-sinhs; se Mr. T. A.
