Annamacharya is associated with Telugu devotional *sankirtanas* addressed to Lord Venkateswara. The Annamayya district cultural account and Tirumala tradition support the composer–shrine pair. The present Annamayya district name is a commemoration; Tirumala itself is in the Tirupati district setting. A candidate should not assume that the namesake district contains every site associated with the person's performance legacy.

The songs have continued through manuscript preservation, performance and recording. A modern performance is evidence of living reception but not of the date the original lyric was composed. An author–work question should distinguish Annamacharya from Kshetrayya's padams and Potana's *Bhagavatam*. Their common Telugu language does not erase distinctions among devotional song, expressive lyric and narrative retelling. On the map, put Tirumala in the southern hill belt, then label it as the devotional association rather than a claimed exact birth point.

Worked example: Annamacharya is associated with devotional songs and Tirumala. The site offers a map anchor, while the body of compositions is a literary-musical subject. A question asking 'which poet-composer' should not be answered with the temple's deity. Likewise a current district label should come from today's map, not an older pilgrimage account.

Active recall: Pair Annamacharya with deity, shrine and song form. Which present district contains Tirumala?
