SII 14.167: original edition by A. S. Ramanatha Ayyar – No. 167. (A.R. No. 395 of 1929-30.) ĀTTŪR, TIRUCHCHENDUR TALUK, TIRUNELVELI DISTRICT. ON THE NORTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE IN THE SŌMANĀTHĒŚVARA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv14p1i0167.

Summary: This record registers a gift of fifty sheep made by a soldier belonging to the battalion called Sundara-Śōḻapāṇḍyatterinda-paḻaiyarāḷ for burning a lamp in the temple of Sōmanāthadēva at Āṟṟūr. There are several instances in which battalions were named after the name or surname of the reigning king, and the soldier of this record belonged to one such regiment named after Sundara-Chōḷapāṇḍya. From later Pāṇḍya records, it is learnt that a Pāṇḍya army was stationed at Peruṅguḷam, a village situated near Āṟṟūr, and this Chōḷa regiment may also have been in occupation of that village at this period. As records of this viceroy later than the 23rd year are not known the date read doubtfully as [30] may probably be 20.
