SII 1.145: original edition by Eugen Hultzsch

Alternative title: “PART III. NOTES AND FRAGMENTS. No. 144-150. INSCRIPTIONS OF THE KAILĀSANĀTHA TEMPLE AT KĀÑCHĪPURAM. No. 145. ON THE FLOOR OF THE RĀJASIṀHAVARMEŚVARA SHRINE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: Each line of this inscription is incomplete at the end. It is dated during the reign of Madirai-koṇḍa Ko-Parakesari[varman].¹ Line 2 mentions “the holy stone-temple” (Tirukkaṟṟaḷi), i.e., the Rājasiṁhavarmeśvara Temple.² According to lines 3 and 4, the inscription seems to have recorded an agreement made by the inhabitants of two quarters (śeri) of Kachchippeḍu (i.e., Kāñchīpuram), of which the second was called Ekavīrappāḍichcheri and the name of the first also ended in ppāḍichcheri. The term paḷḷichchandam³ occurs in line 5.

Language: Tamil (tam) [Tamil (tamil)].
