Āvuṭaiyārkōyil, Ātmanāthasvāmi temple, stone slab, 17th century author of digital edition Margherita Trento European Research Council (ERC), grant agreement no 809994 DHARMA Paris DHARMA_INSTamilNadu00731.xml CC BY-SA 4.0 2019-2026 as per external metadata This inscription is carved on a stone slab on the left side of the entrance of the main gopuram in the Ātmanāthasvāmi temple at Āvuṭiayārkōyil, in today's Pudukottai district. The inscription is not explicitely dated to the Śaka (or other) era, but it is likely from the early 17th century as it records a promise to the temple made by two subsequent Toṇṭaimāṉ rulers of Aṟantaṅki, Accutappa Nāyakkar (1672-1614) and Irakunāta Nāyakkar (1614-1640).
