SII 12.183: original edition by V. Venkatasubba Ayyar – No. 183. (A.R. No. 342 of 1908). TIRUVAḌIŚŪLAM, CHINGLEPUT TALUK AND DISTRICT. ON THE EAST WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE IN THE JÑĀNAPURĪŚVARA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv12p0i0183.

Summary: This is a fragmentary inscription, dated in the 14th year, recording a gift of three cows for a twilight lamp before the god at Tiruvuḍai[chchuram] in Vallanāḍu, a subdivision of Kaḷattūr-kōṭṭam, by a certain Naṉdipaṉmaṉ.¹ Piḷḷaiyār Nīlagaṅgaraiyar, who is also mentioned here appears to have been an officer under Kōpperuñjiṅgadēva. A Nīlagaṅgaṉ of Āmūr with the title ‘Bhūpālanōdbhava’, corresponding to the title Avaṉi-āḷappiṟandār of Kōpperuñjiṅgadēva figures in a record from Little Conjeeveram dated in the 22nd year of Vijaya-Gaṇḍagōpāla.² This person is probably identical with or a close relation of Nīlagaṅgaraiyar mentioned in the present record.
