SII 13.235: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: “No. 235. (A.R. No. 357 of 1924.) MĒLAPPAḺUVŪR, UDAIYARPALAIYAM TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE AGASTYĒŚVARA SHRINE, AGASTYĒŚVARA TEMPLE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This states that a plot of land, 8 mā in extent, in the dēvadāna village Ūragaṉkuḍi belonging to the temple of Avanigandarvva-Īśvaragṛiham in Kuṉṟak-kūṟṟam, which had been lying fallow was brought under cultivation by order of Pūdi Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyaṉ Kumaraṉ Kaṇḍaṉ, son of Pagaiviḍai-Īśvarattu-Dēvanār of Paḻuvūr and left in charge of the 7 temple servants for maintaining two perpetual lamps in the two shrines of the temple. From the mention of Dēvanār in this record with Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyar we may conclude that two other chiefs of this name figuring in the records of Mēlappaḻuvūr (See No. 153 above) also belonged to the Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyar family, though their relationship with each other is not clear. It is possible that ‘Dēvaṉār’ is used in all these cases only as a term of respect and not as a proper name.
