"Valkal" in Skanda Purana



I understand that in the Skanda Purana, Adishesha predicts that in the future
Shiva's cave temple complex, which Raja Rituparna explored, will be rediscovered
by "Valkal" or "Valkala."  I understand this word to mean "a garment made from 
the bark of a tree."  Does this mean that the re-discovery would be made by a
person wearing such a garment?  Or is "Valkal" perhaps the proper name of the
person who would re-discover the cave?
