ARUPPUKOTTAI ROYAL TEMPLES BY NADAR COUNCIL

Southern India remained the focus of both Anna Dallapiccola (PRASADA) and Samuel K. Parker ( University of Washington , Tacoma ). In her paper, A contemporary pantheon: popular religious imagery in south India , Dallapiccola discussed the traditional temple arts of late 20th century Tamilnadu. She demonstrated how modern imagery and aesthetics are influencing brick and plaster sculptures and temple murals, adding a wealth of new elements to age-revered forms. In Shapes of time and identity: a 'royal' temple in contemporary south India, Parker examined the construction during the past century of a granite Hindu temple by the leaders of the Nadar community in Aruppukottai, of the sort popularly associated in Tamilnadu with claims of royal sovereignty.

It was designed to give, literally, ‘hard’ evidence for the Nadar’s contested identity as a royal caste allegedly dispossessed of its true status. As such it emphasizes the contemporary importance of temple architecture and patronage as a means of expressing social and political identity.

This temple has been periodically renovated since 1983-84. The Rajagopuram was constructed within the period of 8 years and is believed to be the tallest Rajagopura
