## Summary

This is a label inscription in Pallava-Grantha characters giving the
name of the temple as ‘Atyantakāma-Pallavēśvara-gṛiham’. Since the
script of this label approximates closely to that of No. 20 below, but
differs from that of the other labels in the same ‘ratha’, Atyantakāma
referred to here may be taken as a biruda of Paramēśvaravarman I. The
Dharmarāja-ratha is described in the Memoir of the Archaeological Survey
of India, No. 33, pp. 25 ff.
