## Summary

This records an allotment of 6 mā of land to the person singing the
Tiruppadiyam (hymns), a quarter śey (i.e. 5 mā) to those supplying water
for the sacred bath of the god, and another quarter to the uvachchar (of
the temple) out of the land purchased at Śiṟṟānaichchūr by
Kaṟṟaḷippichchaṉ of Tiruvāḍutuṟai. This donor figures in a few
inscriptions of Parāntaka I, in one of which dated in his 25th year
(M.E.R. No. 126 of 1925) he is stated to have built the temple. This may
therefore be assigned to a successor of Parāntaka, probably
Uttama-Chōḷa.
