Dear Srivatsa,I think it's not Shivana Samudra rather it is SriVana (thulasi forest)Samudra. Please correct me if i am wrong.

As the river Kaveri flows, she keeps forking her flow making 3 islands, and each of the islands has a ranganatha perumALtemple. Starting from Shivana samudra (Bluf) being Adi ranga, the Lord here has a baby face, he looks much younger than the other two thirumurnthy and Srirangapatana being madhya ranga and finally she flows to Srirangam in TN again making another island (antha ranga.) members who are better informed requested to clarify. I think the Temple at Srirangapatana was much earlier to Tipu. To give credit to where credit is due, the temple of Lord Sriranganatha is said to have been built by the Chieftain Thirumalaiah in 894 AD. Tippu?s period was in 18th century.
