SII 22.71: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: No. 71. (A.R. No. 71 of 1906) SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT, TIRUKKŌYILŪR TALUK, JAMBAI. JAMBUNĀTHA TEMPLE—ON THE SAME WALL. BĀJARĀJA (I)—26th YEAR (A.D. 1010-11).

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This begins with introduction Tirumagaḷpōla etc. It is built in at the begining of each line. It records the sale of some land tax-free by the assembly of Maṟuvūr alias Vayiramēgha-Chaturvēdimaṅgalam on the southern bank of the river in Vāṇagappāḍi to the temple of Tāṉṟōṉṟi-Mahādēva at Vāḷaiyūr (Jambai) alias Nittavinōdapuram on the northern bank, to provide for offerings to god Kshētrapāla dēva in the temple. The cost of the land and the lump-sum amount towards the payment of taxes (iṟai-dravyam) seems to have been received by the sabhā from a certain Kāḍagachchōmāśi of Kūvaṇḍūr, a member of the āḷum-gaṇam.

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