A PORTRAIT OF PUDUKKOTTAI DISTRICT
A Slice of History
Being home to the pre-historic man, as evidenced by the presence of a large
number of burial sites, the district is a treasure trove of antiquities, monuments, epigraphs
and archeological sites. The district teems with vestiges of the oldest habitations of man
and some of the lithic records known in the south. It finds mention in Sangam Tamil
literature with names such as Oliyamangalam (Thirumayam Taluk), Ollaiyur in
Purananuru, Ambukkovil or Alumbil in Agananuru; Avur the home of the poets Avurkilar,
Avur Mulamkilar; Erichi or Erichalur and several villages with Chola suffixes like Killi,
Sembiam, Valavan etc.
From Coins to Currency
Numismatically, the district is a repository to the
flourishing prosperity of the maritime trade of the
Tamils as borne by the finds at Karukkakurichi,
which had more than 500 Imperial Roman Gold and
Silver Coins, the largest ever recorded from a single
hoard. It contained the coins issued by the Roman
emperors and their queens, successively from
Augustus (BC 29 - AD 14)
upto Vaspasianus (69-79
AD). Korkai, Kilakkarai
and Alagankulam on the
eastern sea coast
bolstered trade. Its close
proximity to the old ports
of Mimisal and Saliyur and Tondi, further south helped it make a mark as an important
Indo-Roman trading centre, through which the inland trade route ran between the western
and eastern ports. It needs mention that of all the 96 princelystates under the British
dominion, Pudukottai was the only state which was allowed to have a currency of its own.
An eclectic Mix
The Pandyas, Cholas, Pallavas, Haysalas, Vijaynagar and Madurai Nayaks ruled over this
part of the country and fostered its communual organisations, trade and industries and embellished
it with temples and monuments of outstanding merit. In fact, the history of Pudukkottai is an
encapsulated version of the history of South India.
Epigraphy
The presence of inscription of the rulers of Pandya dynasty in Kudumianmalai, Thirugokarnam
and Sittannavasal testify that the Pandya land's northern frontier was river Vellar separating the
terrains of the Cholas and Pandyas. This dividing line formed the Konadu and Kanadu, on the north
and south respectively. Soon, the district became the bone of contention between the Pandyas and
Pallavas who carried on the wars by proxy through their subordinate chiefs - the Mutharayars and
Velirs. Among the Velirs the most well known are the Irukkuvels of Kodumbalur.
The First Millennium
The earliest records of the district dates from 490 AD. The period of three centuries between C
600 and C 900 AD relates to the reign of the Pallavas of Kanchi and Pandyas of Madurai who ruled
over the entire Tamil Nadu with their boundary in between their empires oscillating on either side of
river Kaveri. The tract north and south of river Vellar were in the hands of the Mutharayar chieftains
who were defeated by Vijayalaya Chola. Thus, their rivals, the Irukkuvelirs became the firm allies of
the Cholas.
Later Pallavas from the time of Nandhivarman-II (730-796 AD) wrest the territory from the
Pandyas and annexe the tract south of Kaveri, reaching a little south beyond Vellar, thus comprising
the northern half of Pudukkottai district. This period is thus punctuated by rock cut cave temples of
the Pandyas and Mutharaiyars. The best known is the inscription at Sittannavasal in the reign of
Srimara Srivallaba (851-862 AD) and at Kudumianmalai in the reign of Kochadayan Ranadheeran or
Sadayan Maran (C 700-730 AD). During the time of Maravarman Rajasimha-I (C 730-760 AD) a
number. of battles were faught against the Pallavas, one of the sites was Kodumbalur. The earliest
reference of the historical events in the district find place in the Pandya records of Velvikudi and
Sinnamanur plates which say that Maravarman Rajasimha defeated Nadhivarman Pallava Malla at
Kodumbalur. The inscriptions of his successors are found in Kunnandarkoil, Malayadipatti and
Rasalipatti. The inscription of the reign of Nedunchadayan, (C 768-816 AD) the greatest king of the
dynasty is found in Thirugokarnam and Nirpalani.
Religious History
This was the age of Tamil Bhakthi Movement. The Thevaram lists several temples in the
district. The three Nayanmars from this district were, Idangalinayanar of Kodumbalur, Perumizhalai
Kurumbanayanar associated with Devarmalai and Kulachirai Nayanar of Manamelgudi. Jainism had
flourished in Pudukkottai area up to 11th century as seen by a large number of Jaina vestiges in the
district. Buddha idols are also found in Kottaipattinam and Karur.
Administrational Acumen
The rule of Rajaraja-I is revealed through the inscriptions detailing how effectively local
administration functioned in this part of Chola Kingdom. The entire district formed part of the Chola
kingdom until the last year of Kulothunga-III (1178-1218 AD). Post the death of Rajaraja-II and the
succession of Rajadhiraja-II, the Chola power started nosediving. Towards the end of the reign of
Raja Raja-II, Kulasekara one of the two contenders for Pandya throne appealed to the Cholas for
help. His rival Parakrama sought the support of the Srilanka king and the outcome became
disastrous for the Cholas. According to Culavamsa, the Sinhalese chronicle, their army engaged itself
in the war in the parts of the district and burnt down the three storied palace at Ponnamaravathi.
Historical Inscriptions
As per the inscription of Virapandya in Kudumianmalai, the Pandya power was at its
height in the district under Jatavarman Sundra Pandya-I and Jatavaraman vira Pandya-I, the joint
rulers. During the reign of Maravarman Kulasekara-I who acceded in 1268 A.D, Marco polo the
Venetian traveler visited Pandya country. Around the fag end of Kulasekara's reign, the brothers
Jatavarman Virapandya-II and Jatavarman Sundara Pandya-II, quarreled. Malikafur the general of
Alaudeen Khilji, the Sultan of Delhi took advantage of this and invaded Pandya country. This led to
the establishment of a Sultanate at Madurai. There are two inscriptions relating to the period of the
Sultans of Madurai in the district, one at Rangiam (1332 AD) and another at Panaiyur (1344 A.D).
A mélange of rulers
The brief spell of Muslim rule by the Sultanate of Madurai lasted for about 75 years. Minor
princes ruled small territories and around 1371 AD. Kumarakampana, the Vijayanagar prince took
over Madurai and the Sultanate came to an end.
The Vijayanagar Rajas centered in Hampi took over Madurai and the whole of South India during the
13th Century. The inscriptions in the district refer to many local chiefs such as Suraikudi,Perambur,
Sendavanmangalam, Vanadaraiyar, Gangaiaraiyar and Thondaimans of Aranthangi. During the brief Tuluva
rule (1485-1505 A.D) Narasimha Raya the first Tuluva emperor, during a tour of his dominions passed
through
Pudukkottai country on his way to Madurai. Vira
Narasimha Nayak, the Tuluva usurper and the
general of Saluva Narasimha-I, led a campaign
against the Pandya chiefs and marched through
Pudukkottai. A great Personality of the Tuluva
dynasty (1505-1570 A.D) was Krishna Deveraya
(1509-1529 A.D). He had visited Brihadambal
Gokarnesa temple at Thirugokarnam on his way to
Rameswaram and gifted many valuable presents to
the temple.
Sri Brahathambal Gokarnesha Temple
The provincial viceroys of the Vijayanagar empire, the Nayaks of Madurai and Thanjavur asserted
independence after the downfall of the empire. The Pudukkottai area thus came under the Nayaks of
Madurai nominally and under the Thanjavur Nayaks frequently. Around the end of 17th Century, the
Thondaimans of Pudukkottai rose to power with full sovereignty till its amalgamation with the rest of India
after Indian Independence in 1947. The period before saw Pudokottai being mired in feudal wars which are
detailed below.
British Intervention
The famous war of succession to the office of Nawab of Carnatic between Mohamad Ali and
Chanda Sahib, became in due course a war of supremacy between the English and the French in South
India which resulted in the Carnatic wars. The French supported the cause of Chanda Sahib while the
English were on the side of Mohamed Ali. The war lasted for many years mainly around
Tiruchirappalli. The Thondaiman was firmly on the side of the English while the rulers like
Thanjavur Marathas wavered. At last the English emerged as the masters of this land. This firm help
of the Thondaiman to the English was rewarded by the exemption of tribute by the victorious Nawab
and later this was continued by the English.
Raja Rajagopala Thondaiman (1928 -1948)
the last and ninth in the line of Thondaiman
rulers, was selected by the British
Government and crowned when he was six
years old. The administration was taken care
of by English administrators, with one
Alexandar Totenham being singularly
noteworthy.
Pudukkottai Palace
The important contribution of this period is the New Palace - which was built in 1930 in Indo -
Saracenic Dravidian architecture. This beautiful granite structure now houses the District Collector's
Office. After Indian independence in 1947, the Pudukkottai Princely State was amalgamated with
Indian Union on 04/03/1948. The long history of the Thondaimans rule came to an end.

artistically known for its Sculptures.
8. THIRUMAYAM FORT:
The Thirumayam Fort is a 40-acre wide fortress in the town of Thirumayam in Pudukkottai-
Karaikudi Highway in Pudukkottai District. It was
constructed by Vijaya Raghunatha Sethupathi, the Raja
of Ramnad in 1687. Later the fort was handed over to
his brother in law Raghunatha Raya Tondaiman. The
fort originally said to have been a 'ring fort' with seven
concentric walls has only four surviving now. The
construction of the fort is of inferior quality as small
blocks of stone were used along with bricks for the
building of the fortification. The fort has three entrances; one on the north, another on the south and
third on the east. To the Northwest is another pond and to the southeast another tank. There are six
more cannons mounted in the north, south and east gates. The fortress is of great historical
significance and was an important stronghold of rebel chieftains in the Polygar Wars. Oomathurai,
the brother of Panchalamkurichi chieftain Kattabomman was captured in this fort. The Fort is
locally known as Oomayan Kottai.

2. CLIMATE AND RAINFALL
‘’ tpRk;gpd; JsptPopd; my;yhy;kw; whq;Nf gRk;Gy; jiyfhz;G mwpJ.”
(Fws; 2 : 16)
“ If from the clouds no drops of rain are shed, Tis rare to see green herb lift up its head.”
Climate plays an important role in determining the agricultural, industrial and economic
growth of any region. Climate includes the parameters like temperature, rainfall, pressure, wind, humidity,
precipitation etc.. Temperature and rainfall are the most important aspects which directly affect the
climate condition of any region. There is a slow and steady increase in the temperature which has a direct
impact on rainfall. Due to industrialization, urbanization, deforestation and depletion of ozone, there is a
constant increase in temperature which has lead to global warming. This has a direct impact on the
melting of snow, increase in mean sea-level access of rainfall / deficit of rainfall, increase and temperature
etc.. Rainfall measured through the use of rainguages. Rainfall amounts are estimated actively by weather
radar and positively by weather satellites.
TEMPERATURE
Temperature is an important parameter in determining the climatic condition of any region. The
climatic condition determines the agricultural pattern, life style of people and the socio economic conditions
of any region. Pudukkottai District falls under the tropical region so the temperature here is normally high.

RED LOAM :
These soils usually contain greater amounts of nutrients and humus than their sandy ‘relatives’. They
also offer better drainage and infiltration of water and air than silty soils, and are easier to till than
clay soils.
This soil type is considered ideal for agricultural purposes on account of its ability to retain nutrients
well. It also retains water while still allowing excess water to drain away. There are a variety of such
soils, each with slightly different characteristics, with some being more efficient at draining liquids
than others.
This soil can be used for the construction of homes, where a layer of it can be built on the inside of
walls. This helps regulate air humidity. This soil, combined with straw, can also be used as a rough
construction material to build walls. This is one of the oldest technologies for house construction in
the world!
BLACK SOIL:
Black soils are derivatives of trap lava and are spread mostly across regions where there is both
moderate rainfall and underlying basaltic rock. Because of their high clay content, black soils develop
wide cracks during the dry season, but their iron-rich granular structure makes them resistant to wind
and water erosion. They are poor in humus yet highly moisture-retentive, thus responding well to
irrigation.
SANDY COASTAL ALLUVIAL SOIL :
These are light grey, pale yellow or brown sand , with gravelly sandy laom to clay loam in subsurface
horizons and are acidic in reaction, low in CEC (cation exchange capacity) base saturation and water
holding capacity and deficient of major nutrients. These soils are classified under order Entisols with
sub-orders Aquents, Fluvents and Psamments.
RED SANDY SOIL:
The iron in red sandy soil prevents iron deficiency in plants. This is often offset by the soils
acidity. On the down side, sandy soils require more frequent watering or the use of other
methods to retain moisture. Adding organic matter and careful watering help overcome
this issue.

4. IRRIGATION
Efficient use of water resource is basic to survival of the ever-increasing population of a
country. In arid and semi-arid climatic conditions the timing and amount of rainfall are not
adequate to meet the moisture requirement of crops. Therefore supplementary irrigation is
essential to raise the crops necessary to meet the needs of food and fibre for the growing
population. Scientific irrigation water management provides the best insurance against
weather-induced fluctuations. This is the only way in which we can make our agriculture
profitable and sustainable in the coming decades.
Irrigation is the artificial application of water to partially meet the crop evapo-
transpiration requirements. It is essential for sustaining crop productivity in many parts of the
country mainly because the rainfall is inadequate and unevenly distributed to meet crop-water
demands. Irrigation water is costly and scarce input, and is becoming more difficult to increase
the area under irrigation to meet demand for food, fodder and fibre of the growing human and
livestock populations.
