SII 17.625: original edition by K. G. Krishnan

Alternative title: No. 625. (A.R. No. 579 of 1904.) TIRUVĀRŪR, NAGAPATTINAM TALUK, TANJORE DISTRICT.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

Summary: On the north wall of the central shrine in the Satyavāchakēśvara temple.

Kulōttuṅga I. Year 27: 1096-97 A.D.

This inscription commences with the praśasti Pugaḻ śūlnda puṇari of KulōttuṅgaI. Though the portion containing the date is lost in the body of the grant it is stated that this grant issued in the 27th year became necessary as the endowment already made in the 26th year was found insufficient.

It records the sale of land, made tax-free, to god Tirumaṇḍaḷi-uḍaiya Mahādēva probably by the same sabhā as in No. 623 above, receiving 6 3/4 and mākāṇi kāśu endowed for offerings on specified occasions and for feeding Śivayōgis and Māhēśvaras, by Paṭṭaśā . . . . . . [Śe]llūr-kkāri Pavaḻa-kkuṉṟu alias Nāṟpatteṇṇāyira-vannadānanangai Tāḻi-Nindi and Śellūr-kkāri Pāṟpati.

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