## Summary

This record is dated in the 21st year of the viceroy who is referred to
as Jaṭāvarmaṉ alias Uḍaiyār [Vi]raśōḻa pāṇḍyadēva and registers a gift
of land by a certain Kuḻāśaṉi Māḷuvamāṇikkam alias
Adhirājarāja-Puṉguṉṟa-nāḍāḻvāṉ for providing offerings to the image of
god Kshētrapāla at Mēṉmarudūr alias Jayaṅgoṇḍa-śōḻanallūr in
Gaṅgaikoṇḍaśōḻa-vaḷanāḍu, a division of Rājarāja-Pāṇḍināḍu.

This record appears to belong to the first viceroy of the name of
Sundara-Chōḷapāṇḍya, as a different viceroy with the high regnal year of
21 cannot be otherwise accounted for.
