## Summary

This records the gift of a perpetual lamp made to the temple of
Paramasvāmin at Tiruvāmāttūr a dēvadāna in Vāvalūr-nāḍu by a certain
Śiṟiyamārāyaṉ and his brothers, on behalf (or in memory ?) of
Śandirāchchaṉ, son of Kāḷi alias Mīṉavaṉ-Mārāyaṉ of Teṉṉavaṉmādēvi
(village) in Ve[ṇ]-nāḍu—perhaps in expiation of some wrong done by them
to the latter.
