Commentary
GEṄGOṆḌA MAṆḌAPA. Madras Survey Map, No. 53. The modern name is perhaps a corruption of Gaṅgai-koṇḍāṉ Maṇḍapa and connected with Gaṅgai-koṇḍa Choḷa, a prince who, according to Dr. Burnell (South- Indian Palaeography, 2nd edition, p. 45, note 1), is mentioned in an inscription at Karuvūr in the Coimbatore District. I read the name gaṁgaikoṇḍa-cola on both faces of a silver coin, which is figured by Sir W. Elliot (Coins of Southern India, plate iv, No. 152).
