The Periyapuranam is an important source of social and religious history of early medieval _____
Tamil Desha
Tamil Desha option is correct.
The Periyapuranam (“the great purana”), also called Tiruttondar Puranam, was composed in the twelfth century CE by Sekkizhar in the court of the Chola king Kulottunga II. It is a Tamil hagiographical epic that narrates the lives of the sixty-three Nayanar Shaiva saints and forms the twelfth book of the Shaiva canon, the Tirumurai.
Because it is set almost entirely in the Chola heartland and the wider Tamil-speaking country, and because it names innumerable temples, cities, guilds, castes and rulers of the region, the text is one of the richest windows we possess on the society, sectarian life, temple economy and Bhakti movement of early medieval Tamil Desha (Tamilakam).
Telangana, Andhra Desha and Tulunadu lay outside its geographical and linguistic ambit and are only marginally referenced, if at all.
