The inscription states that as a result of the Oḍḍiyaṉ-galabhai in the country, the worship in the temple of Tāṉtōṉṟi-Nāyanār at Śaṇbai had been stopped for ten years, and the walls of the temple itself had fallen down and the precincts had been filled with sand. In the year quoted Immaḍi Rāmappa-Nāyaka Timmappa-Nāyaka . . a chieftain of the king seems to have revived the worship in the temple, by remitting as sarvamānya 150 poṉ out of the 200 being paid as jōḍi and śūlavari to the king, leaving the remaining 50 for payment as land tax in future.
