District headquarters and the largest city across the four districts. The AP urban-local-body article states that within Rayalaseema, Adoni is the oldest municipality, 'followed by Kurnool'. Kurnool was the seat of the Nawab of Kurnool before 1839 and briefly the capital of Andhra State (1953-56). No Vasavi Kanyaka Parameswari temple or Arya Vysya sangam in Kurnool city could be confirmed from a government, census or established community-organisation source, so none is recorded.
