SII 13.271: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao – No. 271. (A.R. No. 333 of 1907.) TIRUVIŚALŪR, KUMBAKONAM TALUK, TANJORE DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, ŚIVAYŌGANĀTHASVĀMIN TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0271.

Summary: This records a gift of 300 and odd sheep for the maintenance of 3(1/2) perpetual lamps in the temple of Perumāṉaḍigaḷ at Tiruviśalūr in Avaninārāyaṇa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam by Pūrvadēviyār, the mother of Mādēvaḍigaḷ (king ?). Pūrvadēviyār seems to connote merely ‘the elder queen or the queen-mother.’ The palaeography of the record and the high regnal year of the king make it assignable to Parāntaka II Sundara-Chōḷa.
