## Summary

The date of this record of Vijaya-Kampavarman is not clear. It might be
11, 13 or 16. The inscription records an agreement made by the assembly
(ūr) of Vaikkāṭṭūr to provide offerings to the god Mahādēva at
Tiruvoṟṟiyūr, on the day of saṅkrānti, for the interest on 27 kaḻañju of
gold received by them from Pūdi Aṟindigai, wife of Viḍēlviḍugu
[Iḷaṅkōvē]ḷār of Koḍumbāḷūr[1] in Kō-nāḍu. The chiefs of Koḍumbāḷūr (in
the Pudukkottai state) figure largely in inscriptions as subordinates of
the Chōḷas, but their connection with the Pallavas is not so well known.
A chief of this family is also mentioned in a mutilated record from
Kīḻūr,[2] dated in the 11th year of Vijaya-Nandivikramavarman, where the
donor is stated to be the wife of Śāttaṉ Maṟavaṉ and the daughter of
Vikrama-Pūdi who is probably identical with Viḍēlviḍugu
Iḷaṅkō-Adiaraiyaṉ mentioned in the same record.
