==History and etymology== An inscription found in Sadras dated to 1359 mention this place as Rajanarayanan Pattinam after a [[Sambuvaraya]] chieftain. There is a temple to [[Vishnu]] here, and because of it later the city was known as Sadiravasagan Pattinam.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.aarde.in/sadras/history__monuments | title=SADRAS HISTORY & MONUMENTS | publisher=Art and Architecture Research, Development Education (AARDE) | access-date=25 February 2012 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120828194403/http://aarde.in/sadras/history__monuments | archive-date=28 August 2012 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> This later changed into Sadurangapattinam, shortly known as Sadirai.
