Alternative title: “No. 187. (A.R. No. 166-A of 1904.) TIRUVAKKARAI, VILUPPURAM TALUK, SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: On the south wall of the central shrine in the Chandramauḷīśvara temple.

Sadāśivarāya. Ś. 1461 (wrong for Ś. 1465: 1543 A.D.)

This is dated Śaka 1461, Śōbhakṛit. The Śaka year cited appears to be a mistake for 1465. The epigraph stops after citing the above date.

It mentions Sadāśiva-mahārāya as the son of Vīrapratāpa Raṅgayadēva who was pleased to witness the [elephant]-hunt.
