SII 13.128: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: No. 128. (A.R. No. 442 of 1904.) VĒDĀRAṆYAM, TIRUTTURAIPUNDI TALUK, TANJORE DISTRICT. ON A PILLAR IN THE MAṆḌAPA IN FRONT OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, VĒDĀRAṆYĒŚVARA TEMPLE.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This inscription is damaged. It seems to record an allocation of paddy from certain fields, to provide for offerings daily during the midday service in the temple of Bhuvanaviṭaṅkadēva at Tirumaṟaikkāḍu, and for (special) offerings to the deity on the festival days in the months of Aippigai and Māśi. Mention is made of Tirumaṟaikkāḍaṉ Śokkaṉ alias Śōḻiyaṅga . . . . probably a donor.

Language: Tamil (tam) [Grantha (grantha), Tamil (tamil)].

Repository: SII original (south-indian-inscriptions).

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0128.
