## Summary

The inscription is mutilated. It records an endowment of land for a
perpetual lamp made to the temple of Tiruvirāmīśvarattu-Mahādēva at
Madanamañjari-chaturvēdimaṅgalam in Neṉmali-nāḍu by
Akkumāra-Kramavittaṉ, a member of the āḷuṅgaṇam of the village. This is
also probably referable to Sundara-Chōḷa.
