SII 13.263: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao – No. 263. (A.R. No. 528 of 1921.) ĒMAPPĒRŪR, TIRUKKOYILUR TALUK, SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE MAṆḌAPA IN FRONT OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, VĒDAPURĪŚVARA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0263.

Summary: The inscription is damaged at the end. It records the gift of a perpetual lamp to the temple of Tiruvālanduṟai-Āḻvār at Ēmappēṟūr in Tirumuṉaippāḍi(-nāḍu) by a certain Kīttimāttāṇḍa-Mēṉiyaṉ of Peruṅkuṟumbu on behalf of his son Malli-Nambi. Kīrttimārttāṇḍa was a surname of the Rāshṭrakūṭa king, Kṛishṇa III. This might probably be a record of Sundara-Chōḷa.
