EPIGRAPHLA INDICA
(VOL. XXXI princess. We know that the name of a queen of Hoysala Narasimha II was also somaladevra and that the said Hoysala king gave one of his daughters in marriage to the Chola king,Rajaraja III. As the practice of naming grandchildren after their grandparents was a popular one, it is not impossible to think that somaladevi, wife of Anangabhima III, was a daughter of Rajarāja III by the daughter of Hoysala Narasithiha II through his queen Somaladēvi. If such was the case, the presence of the inscriptions, edited above by Dr. Mahalingam, at Käñchipuram can be easily explained.
