Notes

1. The number may have been [o]ṉṟāvatu (1), [mu]ṉṟāvatu (3), [patiṉo]ṉṟāvatu (11), [patimu]ṉṟāvatu (13), and so on. Since we do not know where the inscription was exactly, it is difficult to evaluate how much is missing. The estampage of this inscription was not available in the ASI offices in Mysore.
