## Summary

This record dated in some year (of a single digit) opposite to the 2nd
year of reign of Śaḍaiya-Māṟaṉ is damaged at the end. It appears to
relate to a gift of land made by a certain Vikkiramakāmuka-Pallavaraiyaṉ
alias Dēvaṉ-Śōlai of Kuḷattūr in Aḷaṟṟu-nāḍu, who had purchased some
fallow land from the sabhā of Shaḍaṅgavikuṟichchi, a brahmadēya in
Kuḍa-nāḍu and had endowed it, after making it fit for cultivation, to
the temple of Tirunārāyaṇa-viṇṇagar-Dēvar, situated in the north of the
village.

Shaḍaṅgavikuṟichchi is the name of the village which had been granted to
brāhmaṇas well-versed in the Shaḍaṅgas or the six components of Vēdic
learning. Kuṟichchi is the special name for a hilly village.
