The main shrine of the Kayarohana temple-complex at Nagapattinam was possibly rebuilt in or slightly before 1010 CE in Rajaraja's time (985 – 1014 CE). The temple, however, shows a few earlier features particularly of Sembiyan Mahadevi's time. For example, Lasuna, ghata and pali are ornamented in the style of later temples of Sembiyan Mahadevi. There is an adjoining smaller temple of Tyagraja that was added later.
