SII 17.695: original edition by K. G. Krishnan

Alternative title: No. 695. (A.R. No. 639 of 1904.) RĀMAGIRI, TIRUVALLUR TALUK, CHINGLEPUT DISTRICT.

Author of digital edition: Emmanuel Francis (emfr).

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

Kampaṇa Uḍaiyar (II): 1365-66 A.D.

The details of date, i.e., Viśvāvasu, Mithuna 10, Monday and Rōhiṇi are irregular. The cyclic year Viśvāvasu falls in Ś. 1287 (1365-66 A.D.).

This inscription records the gift of land as sarvamānya for lamp to the deities Tiruvālīśvaramuḍaiya nayiṉār and Bhairava Nayiṉār in Niṉṟaiyūr-nāḍu in Kuṉṟavattanakōṭṭam, a sub-division of Jayaṅgoṇḍachōḻa-maṇḍalam.

Below the inscription is another fragment in characters of about the 12th century. It cites the 6th regnal year of a certain king (name lost) and seems to record a gift given by the Nāṭṭavar of Niṉṟaiyūrnāḍu.

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

Repository: SII original (south-indian-inscriptions).
