Alternative title: “No. 141. (A.R. No. 141 of 1906) SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT, TIRUKKŌYILŪR TALUK, ELVĀNĀŚŪR. GRĀMĀRDHANĀTHA TEMPLE—ON THE WEST WALL OF THE SAME PRĀKĀRA. RĀJĒNDRA-CHŌḶA I—5th YEAR (A.D. 1016-17).”

Author of digital edition: DHARMA team.

Summary: The inscription begins with the introduction Tirumanni vaḷara etc. It records an endowment of lands to the temple of Ūruḍaiyār at Iṟaiyānaraiyūr for the formation of a flower garden and for the maintenance of a gardener who was to look after the same and to supply flower garlands daily, by Vāśishṭaṉ Tiruvaraṅgaṉ Tiruvaraṅgaṉ a resident of the place. The donor is also stated to have appointed the person for hereditary service in the temple in this connection. The writing and wording of the record seem to be later than the period of the king.

Language: Tamil (tam).

Version: (b7b08a8), last modified (9479a5f).
