## Summary

This inscription is dated in the 52nd year of Vijaya-Nandivarman. It
records the death of Gaṅgadiyaraiyar Kaṉṉāḍu Peruṅgaṅgar, (the chief) of
Kaṟkāṭṭūr, who at the instance of his uncle (māmaḍi), the Bāṇa chief,
fought on the occasion of the Pallava invasion against Perumānaḍigaḷ
(i.e. the Western Gaṅga king), when (the fortress of) Peṇkuḻikkōṭṭai was
destroyed. From the high regnal year quoted in the inscription, the king
may be identified with Nandivarman Pallavamalla.
