[INDOLOGY] A question on Pāśupata names

[Sudalaimuthu Palaniappan]

Dear Indologists,

 

In discussing the name Anantaśivaṉ for a priest mentioned in an inscription, T. V. Mahalingam considers him to be a Pāśupata based on the name per se. But along with Anantaśivaṉ, two other priests are also mentioned as worshipping in the same temple. They are Tattaśivaṉ and Dharmakkaṇṇaṉ. Is Mahalingam right? 

 

Thank you in advance for any comments.

 

Regards,

Palaniappan
