In Hinduism
Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)
: Prabhupada Books: Sri Caitanya CaritamrtaŚī (शियाली).—According to Śrī Caitanya Caritāmṛta, Madya-lila 9.74, “After visiting the temple of Śī-bhairavī [another form of the goddess Durgā], Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the son of mother Śacī, went to the bank of the river Kāverī�.
Śī-bhairavī is located in the Tanjoreāñ district, about forty-eight miles northeast of Tanjoreāñ City. There is a very much celebrated temple of Lord Śiva there and also a very large lake. It is said that once a small boy who was a devotee of Lord Śiva came to that temple and the goddess Durgā, known as Bhairavī, gave him her breast to suck. After visiting this temple, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu went to the bank of the river Kāverī via the district of Tiruchchirāpalli. The Kāverī is mentioned in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (11.5.40) as a very pious river.

Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu�).
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaŚ (शियालि).—A Purāṇic place in Tanjore District in South India. Indra once fled to this place in fear of the asura called Śūrapadma and did tapas there. (Skanda Purāṇa).

The Purana (पुरा�, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
India history and geography
: archive.org: Chaitanya’s life and teachings (history)Shiyali is one of the places visited by Chaitanya during his pilgrimage in Southern India between April 1510 and January 1512.�Shiyali.—The head-quarters of a taluq of that name in the Tanjore district, about 48 miles n. e. of Tanjore town. It has a famous Shiva temple with a large tank, a shrine dedicated to the Tamil saint Tiru-jnan Sambandhar, and some other separate shrines, and evidently an image of Shiva's consort who is said to have given suck to this saint when he visited this temple as a child. (Tanjore Gaz. 258).
: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasSiyali (सियल�) is the name of a hamlet, mentioned as lying on the western boundary of the village Ekasāla, according to the “Ṭhāṇ� plates of Mummuṇirāja�. The stream is evidently the same as the river Pavahā mentioned in the grant. Ekasāla is to be identified with the village of the same name, now situated about 1½ miles to the north of the Bhivapurī Road Railway station on the Central Railway.
These copper plates (mentioning Siyali) were discovered in 1956 while digging the ground between the Church and the District Office at Ṭhāṇ�, the chief town of the Ṭhāṇ� District in Mahārāṣṭra. Its object is to record the grant, by the Śilāhāra Mummuṇirāja, of some villages and lands to learned Brāhmaṇas on the occasion of the lunar eclipse on the fifteenth tithi of the bright fortnight of Phālguna in the Śaka year 970, the cyclic year being Sarvadhārin.

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
