## Summary

This is a verse inscription of Aparājitavikramavarman dated in his 12th
year. It refers to a gift of land, after purchase from a resident of
Igaṇaimūdūr, for offerings, perfume, incense and for a perpetual lamp to
the god Chōḷamālyīśvara at Oṟṟimudūr (i.e.,) Tiruvoṟṟiyūr. The name
Oṟṟiyūr with its Sanskrit equivalent Ādhipurī meaning a ‘mortgaged city’
is explained by a local tradition of the place.
