                            <p>This is also dated in the <hi rend="bold">4th year</hi> of <hi rend="bold">Vijaya-Aparājitavarman</hi> and it registers a similar agreement made by the <hi rend="italic">sabhā</hi> and the <hi rend="italic">amṛita-gaṇa</hi> of Ādambākkam to maintain a perpetual lamp in the same temple for the interest on 30 <hi rend="italic">kaḻañju</hi> of gold received by them from <hi rend="bold">Śappakkaṉ</hi> <hi rend="italic">alias</hi> <hi rend="bold">Pātradāni,</hi> the mistress of <hi rend="bold">Vayiramēgaṉ</hi> <hi rend="italic">alias</hi> <hi rend="bold">Vāṇakōvaraiyar,</hi> son of <hi rend="bold">Sāmi-Akkaṉ.</hi> As Vāṇakōvaraiyar is called the son of Perunaṅgai in the previous inscription, it is possible that the latter and Śāmi-Akkaṉ were identical. From the way in which this lady is introduced in the record, it is surmised that she should have been a mistress of the king (<hi rend="italic">Ep. Rep.</hi> for 1913, p. 90.)</p>						
                            
                            <p>The term <hi rend="italic">amṛita-gaṇa</hi> is mentioned only in the inscriptions of Aparājita at Tiruvoṟṟiyūr. It represents a committee which was probably connected with the <hi rend="italic">āḷumgaṇattār</hi> who were the direct managing members of a village, and distinct from the general members of the village assembly.<note><hi rend="italic">Ep. Ind.</hi> Vol. XI, p. 224.</note> [It was perhaps mainly connected with the management of the offerings and lamps of the god-Ed].</p>						
                            
                            <p>The <hi rend="italic">puḷḷis</hi> are marked in this record also (See Plate VI).</p>
