                            <p>This incomplete inscription of <hi rend="bold">Śaḍaiya-Māṟaṉ</hi>, the date of which is lost, refers to a certain Māṉābharaṇaṉ-Podiyil-Vēḷāṉ, whose wife may have provided perhaps for the burning of a lamp in the temple of Tirupōttuḍaiya-Bhaṭāra at Iḷaṅgōykkuḍi. From the mention of <hi rend="bold">Māṉābharaṇa</hi> as the surname of the person, it may be inferred that it was probably a <hi rend="italic">biruda</hi> of the king <hi rend="bold">Śaḍaiya-Māṟaṉ</hi> himself. It does not occur, however, in his copper plate grant from Śiṉṉamaṉūr.</p>
