## Summary

This inscription dated in the 10th year of Śrīvallabha is incomplete and
refers to some transactions made in the 31st year of
Kulōttuṅga-Chōḷadēva, ‘who took Kollam’, relating to the temples of
Varaguṇa-viṇṇagar-Āḻvār, Śaṭhagōpa-viṇṇagar Āḻvār and Śrī
Rāghavachakravartigaḷ.

Vijayanārāyaṇa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam is stated to be a brahmadēya in
Nāṭṭāṟṟuppōkku and a certain Śaṅkaraṉ Vāsudēvaṉ of Turuttimaṅgalam is
said to have been a person of note in the place (vide No. 231).
