Bibliography

Reported in ARIE 1986-1987 (ARIE/1986-1987/A/1986-1987/44 and 46).

Edited in Kiruṣṇamūrtti 2000 as individual grants (nos. 51-52), whereas they are in fact found in succession in a single plate. These editions are not taken systematically into account since the editor regularly adapts Sanskrit words to Tamil spelling.
