SII 13.139: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao

Alternative title: No. 139. (A.R. No. 130 of 1914.) ON THE SAME WALL.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: This also, like No. 138 above, records an agreement by the peruṅguṟi-sabhai (of the village) after their deliberation in the (hall) Tiruchchitrakūḍam, exempting from tax six mā of land endowed (to the temple) by Māppāni Kāri Nakkaṉ of Valavūr, a resident of the village, 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, in consideration of a lump-sum received by them from the donor as iṟai-dravyam. This donor has been mentioned in No. 51 above. Possible equivalents of the date given here are discussed by Swamikannu Pillai in the M.E.R. for 1915, page 72, on the assumption that the record was one of Āditya I. This may also, like No. 138, be assignable to Gaṇḍarāditya or Sundara-Chōḷa.

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