## Bibliography

Reported in ARIE 1986–87 (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.

This edition by Margherita Trento, based on EFEO photographs (2015).
