Summary: This inscription dated in the 2+19th year of Śaḍaiya-Māṟaṉ registers a gift of 25 sheep for a lamp to be burnt in the temple of Karumāṇikkadēva of Teṉ-Tirumāliruñjōlai in Kīḻkaḷakkūṟṟam, by Appinaṅgai, the wife of Śatrubhayaṅkara-Muttaraiyaṉ of Ālaṅguḍi, a village in Iruñjōḻa-nāḍu. From the fact that the donatrix is styled an araśiyār, her husband Śatrubhayaṅkara-Muttaraiyaṉ was probably a Pāṇḍya feudatory of some note in this region. Aṇukkaṉ is mentioned as the title of Appinaṅgai’s father. Probably he belonged to the Aṉukkappaḍai or the king’s bodyguard. This title appears to have been used for such personal service to the king, as in Teṉṉavaṉ-Aṇukkappēraraiyaṉ in No. 64 above.
