Four inscriptions on the Valikandesvaram temple at Valikandapuram have been found that have been attributed to Aditya I (871 - 907 CE) and Parantaka I (907 - 954 CE) by different scholars. The earliest incontrovertible inscriptions are between the fourth and fortieth years of Parantaka I. The temple was perhaps rebuilt in stone in Parantaka I's time maybe as early as his fourth regnal year that is in 911 CE. Reference: M.W. Mesister and M.A. Dhaky 1963, p. 174.
