SII 13.203: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: “No. 203. (A.R. No. 238 of 1927.) AMMAṄGUḌI, KUMBAKONAM TALUK, TANJORE DISTRICT. ON A STONE-MORTAR KEPT IN THE LAKSHMĪNĀRĀYAṆA-PERUMĀḶ TEMPLE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This consists of a number of fragments which should have originally formed part of a complete inscription. It seems to record the re-construction of a temple or shrine under the name Tiruvaiyōtti (Ayōdhyā) to Rāmadēvapperumāḷ, and consecration of the image of the deity therein, and an endowment of land for offerings, worship and lamps to the god and for a flower-garden by the gaṇapperumakkaḷ (of the village). This is an inscription of Rājarāja I.

Language: Tamil (tam).
