Translation by Emmanuel Francis

(1) Prosperity! Fortune!

(1–2) Third year of Nantipōttaraiyar.

(2–7) [There are] 200 [that is], two hundred, nāḻis of paddy that Pakaiccantiravicai Araiyaṉ, alias Kaṇavatimāṉ, [of] Vaṭuvūr in the Mīpuḷaināṭu, gave to cook and distribute (aṭṭ-aḻiya) at the time/on the day (nāṉṟu) [of] tiruvātirai; [this is for the food] for one hundred persons.

Commentary

(1) On Nandivarman = Nandivarman III Pallava. See SII and IP.

(5) tiruvātirai. A festival?

(7) nūṟṟuvar. A corporate body ("the One Hundred")? Or one hundred people at random?
