Foundational structure (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotra)
According to the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 2.2.4, Kashyapa, Atri, Vasistha, Vishvamitra, Gautama Maharishi, Jamadagni and Bharadvaja are 7 sages (also known as saptarishi) and Jambu Maharishi is another sage (also known as Renuka, who belongs to Kashyapa). The progeny of these 8 sages are declared to be gotras. This enumeration of 7 primary and 1 secondary gotra seems to have been known to Pāṇini. The offspring (apatya) of these 7 are gotras and others than these are called gotrāvayava గోత్రవయవ.

History of Sambumaharishi: According to legend, there lived a saint called Sambu Rishi, who was an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva.
He once found a very rare fruit called “Venn Naaval Pazham” (white Naaval fruit) and he offered it to Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva ate the fruit and spitted out the seed of the fruit.Out of his overwhelming Bhakthi, Jambu Rishi ate the seed, because of its sacred nature as it came out of Lord Shiva ‘s mouth.
The seed which he ate started growing as a Naaval tree from the Rishi ‘s head. The Rishi prayed Lord Shiva to take abode and settle under the tree. The Lord agreed to him and said that, a time will come when I would come and settle under this Naaval Tree. This place then came to be known as Jambugeswaram. Parvathi Devi once playfully disturbed the penance of Lord Shiva.
The God got angry with her and asked her to go to earth and perform penance. Parvathi Devi came down to earth as Akilaandeswari and found this place Jambugeswaram most suitable for her prayers. She took water from river Cauvery and made a Shiva Linga out of it, erected it under the same “Venn Naaval” tree which evolved out of Jambu Maharishi ‘s head and started worshipping. As She made the Shiva Lingam out of water, this came to be known as Appu Lingam (Water Lingam) among Pancha Boodha Lingams.
