SII 13.109: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: “No. 109. (A.R. No. 74 of 1914.) KĀMARASAVALLI, UDAYARPALAYAM TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, KĀRKŌṬAKĒŚVARA TEMPLE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This records a gift of two adjoining plots of land measuring together one mā, after purchasing them from their owners, by Bālāsiṟiyan Bhaṭṭaṉ Śivaṉ Kūttaṉ of Ādanūr (the donor mentioned in No. 106 above) to provide for the supply of śidāri and other ingredients for fumigation during the daily services in the temple of Tirunallūr-Mahādēva at Kāmaravalli-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, a dēvadāna and brahmadēya in Innambar-nāḍu. The inscription also states that the land was made tax-free in consideration of 12 kāśu received from the donor by the Peruṅguri-Perumakkaḷ (Elders of the Assembly) of the village, who met for the purpose before the maṇḍapa heralded by the blowing of a pair of kāḷam. Among the boundaries are mentioned the channel Kōdaṇḍarāma-vāykkāl and the road Śōḻamahādēvi-vadi. Kōdaṇḍarāma was a surname of Āditya I (Travancore Archaeological Series, Vol. III, part I, p, 109), and also of Rājāditya, the son of Parāntaka (No. 318 of 1904). The inscription seems to be assignable to Sundara-Chōḷa Parāntaka II, and the date corresponds to A.D. 961, January 4. The details however, viz, Makara, Friday, Punarvasu, are not capable of verification.

Language: Tamil (tam) [Grantha (grantha), Tamil (tamil)].
