SII 12.238: original edition by V. Venkatasubba Ayyar

Alternative title: “No. 238. (A.R. No. 148 of 1932-33). TIRUKKAḺUKKUṈṞAM, CHINGLEPUT TALUK AND DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE FIRST PRĀKĀRA (OUTSIDE) OF THE BHAKTAVATSALĒŚVARA TEMPLE.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: In this record of the 31st year, the first stone containing the beginning of lines is lost. Some of the inscribed stones are also misplaced, thus indicating the renovation of the wall in later times. The inscription registers the agreement made by Sampātidēvaṉ alias Iḍaikkāḍadēvaṉ to supply ghee for a perpetual lamp to the god [Ti]rukkaḻukkuṉṟamuḍaiya-Nāyaṉār, in return for the sheep, cows and lands obtained formerly as endowment, from several persons, by his father Iḍaikkāḍadēvaṉ.

The astronomical details given point to A.D. 1273, November 6, Monday as the date of the record.

Language: Tamil (tam).
