Primary
[CN] Nākacāmi, Irā. 1972. Ceṅkam naṭukaṟkaḷ. TNSDA publication 21. Ceṉṉai: Tamiḻnāṭu Aracu tolporuḷ Āyvuttuṟai. Item 1971/58.
Notes
- 1. kampōtaArki in the original text, that is, Kampavarman according to Nākacāmi 1972.
- 2. Or rather, “who you used to live,” if Cākāṭacciṟṟaṉ is indeed the commemorated dead hero.
- 3. Literally: being.
- 4. Cākāṭacciṟṟaṉ could also grammaticaly be the subject of koṇṭa, but it does make much sense that he seized buffaloes from his village of residence. Alternatively, on could consider that Cākāṭacciṟṟaṉ is the one who attacked Puḷiyūr and that a hero, whose name is lost in the lacuna, living in Puḷiyūr, died on this occasion. In that cas vāḻum would not qualify Cākāṭacciṟṟaṉ.
