Kapilar History

Kapila Deva Nayanar is one among the twelve devotees who sung the divine Padinoran Tirumurai, the eleventh Tirumurai. There have been many poets by the name Kapilar referred to in history. Some say that whatever is present in the Tirumurai should be attributed to a different Kapilar than the one who lived during the sangam period, before the common era. The Kapilar who lived in the sangam period havehas written many songs in sangam literature. There are three compositions written by this devotee of Lord Shiva present in the eleventh Tirumurai, which are Mutha Nayanar Tiru-irattaimanimalai, Shivaperuman Tiru-irattaimanimalai and Shivaperuman Tiru-antadi.
