SII 12.68: original edition by V. Venkatasubba Ayyar – NRIPATUNGAVARMAN. No. 68. (A.R. No. 258 of 1912). PARAMĒŚVARAMAṄGALAM, MADURANTAKAM TALUK, CHINGLEPUT DISTRICT. ON A SLAB NEAR THE GAṆĒŚA IMAGE OUTSIDE THE KAILĀSANĀTHA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv12p0i0068.

Summary: This inscription records that a Brahman lady Dēvachchāṉi, wife of Daṇḍiyaṅkiḻār Pāṇḍiya-Kramavittar set up the image of Gaṇapati-Bhaṭāra in the temple of Śailēśvaram at Paramēśvaramaṅ[ga]lam, constructed a shrine for it and endowed 40 kāḍi of paddy for twilight lamps and worship to the deity. 3) This form of the king’s name, as suggested in fn. l, on the previous page, is unusual. The record is dated simply in the 15th year, but the king’s name is not mentioned. Since the other face of the slab contains an inscription of Nṛipatuṅga, dated in his 16th year¹ which closely resembles the present inscription in its writing, this epigraph also may be assigned to the reign of the same king.
