SII 13.211: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: “No. 211. (A.R. No. 333 of 1928.) NERŪR, KARUR TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT. ON THE NORTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, VARADARĀJA-PERUMĀḶ TEMPLE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This registers a sale of land to the temple of Śrī Pāṇḍaṉ-Viṇṇagardēvar at Vīraśōḻa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam (by which name evidently Nerūr was known), a brahmadēya in Kīḻaṅga-nāḍu by Bāradāyaṉ (Bhāradvājan) Nārāyaṇaṉ Nārāyaṇaṉ a resident of the village. The price he received is stated to have been 3 1/2 kaḻañju of gold by the standard weight known as Kāśeṭṭāṅkal, which probably signifies that a kaḻañju of gold was equivalent to 8 kāśu in weight. This is incised in late characters and is probably an inscription of Kulōttuṅga-Chōḷa I.

Language: Tamil (tam).

Version: (3992bd7), last modified (0ec4724).
