SII 17.200: original edition by K. G. Krishnan

Alternative title: “No. 200. (A.R. No. 179 of 1904.) TIRUVAKKARAI, VILUPPURAM TALUK, SOUTH ARCOT DISTRICT.”

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: On the west wall of the maṇḍapa in front of the central shrine in the Chandramauḷīśvara temple.

Kulōttuṅga I. Year 7: 1076-77 A.D.

On grounds of palaeography this inscription may be assigned to Kulōttuṅga I (1070-1120 A.D.).

It seems to record some arrangement by the Nāṭṭār in the presence of Nīlagaṅgaraiyar, made in expiation of the sin committed by mistake by Paḷḷi Uḻukkai Nāḍāḻvān for having killed Pachchai Paḷḷi by an arrow in the course of a hunting expedition led by the Nāṭṭār.

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

Repository: South Indian Inscriptions (Original Edition) (south-indian-inscriptions).
