SII 13.294: original edition by G.V. Srinivasa Rao – No. 294. (A.R. No. 260 of 1921.) TAKKŌLAM, ARKONAM TALUK, NORTH ARCOT DISTRICT. ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE CENTRAL SHRINE, JALANĀTHĒŚVARA TEMPLE.

Editor: Emmanuel Francis.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSIIv13p0i0294.

Summary: The beginnings of lines of this inscription are built in. This records an agreement by the sabhā of Aparājita-chaturvēdimaṅgalam (evidently the ancient name of Takkōlam), to burn a perpetual lamp in the temple of Tiruvūṟaṟkaṟṟaḷi-Mahādēva for 30 kaḻañju received by them. The name of the donor is lost. This seems to be a record of Āditya I who is known from the Tiruvālaṅgāḍu Plates to have wrested the Toṇḍai-nāḍu from the Pallava Aparājitavarman (S.I.I., III, p. 386).
