## Summary

This record registers a gift of land made in the 2nd year of
Vayiramēgavarman by Muḷḷikkuḍaiyāṉ Ādittaṉāḷi for conducting the
tiruppali (i.e., śrībali) ceremony and for offerings during the three
services in the temple of Tirukkūḷīchcharattu-Āḷvār at Palkalam in
Dāmar-kōṭṭam, with five persons including one for beating the gong
(śēgaṇḍigai) and two for blowing the trumpets (kāḷam). The assembly (ūr)
of Palkalam entrusted the endowed land to Arayaṇichchiṅgaṉ, a drummer
(uvaichchaṉ) residing in the village.

The village Palkalam may be identified with Kīḻpulam itself.
