Commentary

Krishnamacharlu 1942 (p. 86, §22) notes:1 “It mentions the sabhā of Niṉṟavūr which was evidently the old name of the village (Tiruniṉṟavūr) which has become the modern Tiṉṉaṉūr. This Niṉṟavūr should be identical with the village of the same mentioned in No. 176 of 1930 from Piḷḷaippākkam in the same taluk, which registers a regulation framed by the assembly of Niṉṟavūr. The slab on which this latter record is engraved had apparently belonged to this village and may have later found its way to Piḷḷaippākkam.”
