SII 13.138: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: No. 138. (A.R. No. 127 of 1914.) TIRUVEṞUMBŪR, TRICHINOPOLY TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, PIPĪLIKĒŚVARA TEMPLE.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This records an agreement given, in consideration of a lump amount received from the donor, by the peruṅguṟi-sabhai of Śrīkaṇṭha-chaturvēdimaṅgalam who had assembled in the (hall called) Tiruchchitrakūḍam at the village, remitting the payment of the tax due on 4 mā of land endowed by a resident of the village named Tiruppēr Bālāśiriyaṉ Mādhavaṉ Subrahmaṇyaṉ for the daily feeding of a Brāhmaṇa versed in the Vēdas in the feeding-house attached to the temple of Tiruveṟumbiyūr-Āḻvār on the hill. This is one of the 6 inscriptions of the place assigned to Āditya I on the basis of which the dates have been calculated by the late Mr. L.D.Swamikannu Pillai (M.E.R. for 1915, Appendix F) with five possible English equivalents in the period of his reign. But it has been shown above under No. 110 that they may, with greater probability, be referred to the reign of Gaṇḍarāditya of Sundara-Chōḷa.

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