SII 13.106: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao – No. 106. (A.R. No. 171 of 1907.) TIRUPPALĀTTURAI, TRICHINOPOLY TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT. ON THE WEST WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, ĀDIMŪLĒŚVARA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0106.

Summary: This inscription records an endowment of some lands made by Bālāśiriyaṉ Bhaṭṭaṉ Śivaṉ Kūttaṉ of Ādanūr, to the temple of Tiruppāṟṟurai-Mahādēva at Uttamaśīli-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, to provide for the maintenance of some servants in the temple, for burning a perpetual lamp before the deity and for the midday offerings. The taxes on these lands were to be paid by the Big Assembly of the village in return for a lump-sum deposit of 50 Īḻakkāśu made with them by the donor. The details of the date given, viz., Mithuna, Tuesday, Chittirai, seem to correspond to A.D. 961, May 28, though they are not enough for verification of its correctness. The inscription may be one of Sundara-Chōḷa.
