SII 14.162: original edition by A. S. Ramanatha Ayyar – No. 162. (A.R. No. 102 of 1905.) AMBĀSAMUDRAM, AMBASAMUDRAM TALUK, TIRUNELVELI DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE ERICHCHĀVUḌAIYĀR TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv14p1i0162.

Summary: This Vaṭṭeḻuttu record dated in the 18th year of Jaṭāvarmaṉ Sundara-Chōḷapāṇḍya is engraved in the Erichchāvuḍaiyār shrine, and the stones are somewhat disarranged. The object of the record seems to be the provision made for burning lamps in the shrines of Tiruppōttuḍaiyār and Mūlasthāṉam-uḍaiyār at Tiruchchālaittuṟai in Rājarājachaturvēdimaṅgalam, a brahmadēya in Muḷḷi-nāḍu, a subdivision of Muḍigoṇḍaśōla-vaḷanāḍu. Two other disconnected fragments are found on some slabs embedded in the walls of the same shrine.
