SII 14.34-35: original edition by A. S. Ramanatha Ayyar – No. 34-35. (A.R. Nos. 428-A and 428-B of 1914.) PAḶḶIMAḌAM, ARUPPUKKOTTAI TALUK, RAMANATHAPURAM DISTRICT. ON STONES IN THE NORTHERN WALL OF THE MAṆḌAPA IN THE KĀLANĀTHASVĀMIN TEMPLE.

Summary: These inscriptions are engraved on slabs now found embedded in the north wall of the maṇḍapa in the Śiva temple. The slabs appear to have originally belonged to the Jaina temple named Tirukkāṭṭāmbaḷḷi at Kuṟaṇḍi nearby, and to have been removed thence along with the wing-stones noted above. They register the usual gifts of sheep for lamps to be burnt in the temple of Tirukkāṭṭāmbaḷḷi-Dēvar at Kuṟaṇḍi in Veṇbu-nāḍu. Though the king’s name is not specified, these records may be attributed to the time of Māṟañjaḍaiyaṉ.
