Aditya I is known to have built a number of temples 108 for [[Shiva]] along the banks of the [[Kaveri]]. The Kanyakumari inscription gives us the information that Aditya I was also known by the surname '''Kodandarama'''. There is a temple near the town of Tondaimanarrur called ''Kodandarameshvaraa'', also mentioned in its inscriptions by the name ''Adityesvara''. This seems to have been built by Aditya I. He also revised Annamalaiyar sanctum in Thiruvaannamalai during 872{{spaced ndash}}900. Aditya also was the patron of Sureswara and prabhakara who were pupils of kumarila bhatta a favourite student of Adisankaracharya. The author of that work do confirm that they settled in the banks of Kaveri (Sibishu kaveriteere meaning in the country of cholas (Sibi is an ancestor of Cholas)) and were employed by Manukula Adityan (Aditya Chola).
