SII 17.582: original edition by K. G. Krishnan

Alternative title: No. 582. (A.R. No. 537 of 1904.) TIRUVĀRŪR, NAGAPATTINAM, TALUK, TANJORE DISTRICT.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: On the east wall of the first prākāra in the Tyāgarājasvāmin temple, right of entrance.

Kulōttuṅga III. Year 8: 1184-85 A.D.

This inscription commences with the praśasti Puyal vāyttu etc., of Kulōttuṅga III. The month Tulā is mentioned as the date of the grant. It seems to refer to a transaction made in the reign of Śuṅgantavirttaruḷiṉa Kulōttuṅgachōḷa. The donor of this record is probably the same as Vēdavaṉam-uḍaiyāṉ Ammaiyappaṉ Pallavarāyaṉ, who figures as an officer of the king’s predecessor Rājādhirāja II (Vide Ep. Ind. Vol. XXI, p. 191).

This records a grant of land to the temple for burning 3 perpetual lamps each for the deities Tiruvārūr Śrī Mūlasthāṉamuḍaiyār, Vīdiviḍaṅga-pperumāḷ and goddess Tirukkāmakkōṭṭamuḍaiya Periyanāchchiyār, by Vēdavaṉam-u . . . of Paḻaiyaṉūr in Mēlmalai-ppaḻaiyaṉūr-nāḍu in Jayaṅgoṇḍaśōḻa-maṇḍalam. The land was entrusted in pieces to two persons who agreed to contribute the ghee required for the lamps.

Language: Tamil (tam) [Grantha (grantha), Tamil (tamil)].
