Alternative title: No. 67. (A.R. No. 67 of 1906) SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT, TIRUKKŌYILŪR TALUK, JAMBAI. JAMBUNĀTHA TEMPLE—ON THE NORTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE. RĀJ. TRIBH. KULŌTTUṄGA (II)—3rd YEAR (A.D. 1135-36).

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This records a gift of 64 cows for burning two perpetual lamps in the temple of Tāntōṉṟi-Āḷuḍaiyār at Śaṇbai alias Vīrarājēndrapuram in Śeṅkuṉṟa-nāḍu on the north bank of the Peṇṇai river, by one Aḍiyanambi Kōvalarāyappēraiyaṉ of Muḍiyanūr in Kīḻkoṉṟai-nāḍu on the southern bank, as atonement demanded of him by the members of the Chitramēḻi community (of artisans or cultivators ?) of the 79 nāḍu, for having killed by accident a certain Poṉpaṟṟi-uḍaiyāṉ Kuṉṟaṉ Śīruḍaiyāṉ, a Veḷḷāḷa resident of Vāḻaiveṭṭi in their nāḍu (Śeṅkuṉṟa-nāḍu). The arrow shot by him at an animal probably in a hunt, is said to have missed its aim and pierced this Śīruḍaiyāṉ instead.
