Summary: This record of Māṟavarmaṉ Parākrama-Chōḷapāṇḍyadēva is dated in the 4th year and registers a gift of 12 kāśu by Yōgadēva and Sōmadēvī from Kāśmīradēśam for burning a lamp in the temple of Śrī-Kayilāyamuḍaiya-Mahādēva at Nigariliśōḻa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, a brahmadēya in Muḷḷi-nāḍu. It is of interest to notice that natives of Kāśmiradēśam sojourned in the south, either on pilgrimage or as a result of the patronage extended to Śaivism by Chōḷa and Pāṇḍya kings. Several natives of Kāśmīradēśam and Āryadēśam have figured in Chōḷa and Pāṇḍya epigraphs.
