## Summary

On the south wall, central shrine, Gaṅgā-Jaṭādhara temple.

Year 10: 981 A.D.

This records a gift of 96 sheep for a perpetual lamp in the temple of
Śrī-Vijayamaṅgalattu-Mahādēva at Periya-Śrī
Vānavaṉmahādēvi-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, a brahmadēyam on the northern bank
of the river, by Ambalavaṉ Paḻuvūraṉ alias Śrī-Vikramaśōḻa-Mārāyar, who
is stated to have also constructed this stone temple for the god.
Another gift of two shares for two perpetual lamps for the same God made
by one Maḻavar of Aṇḍāḍu, evidently a close relation of the donor is
also recorded at the end. It is not clear as to what was meant by two
shares.

Published in S.I.I., Vol. XIX No. 272.
