The stolen Nataraja idol may be be from Suddha Ratnesvara Devastanam, Kodanad Rameswami Temple. The Mackenzie Manuscript vol I., by T.V.Mahalingam, published by Madras University in 1972., pp-4-5 mentions few lines about the loots made by Chanda Sahib and so many invaders. Suthamalai is a derived from suddharatneswara.

There is a mention in Skandapurana about this idol! When I searched the net I found many things about Skandapurana and I wish our Tamil Scholars to have a look at this and bring out the truth. It is not possible for a single man to do this and a group like you alone can help.
