Translation

Grant no. 1: Śaka year 1448

⟨1⟩ Fortune!

⟨1–2⟩ Viya year, while the Śaka year 1448 is going on, on the month of the libra1, during the first half2, and on a Friday, on the day of the seventh star ⟨puṇarpūcam3⟩

⟨2–8⟩ ⟨I⟩, Toṇṭaimāṉ Poṉṉampalanātaṉ, son of Toṇṭaimāṉ Ēkapperumāḷ, king of Aṟantāṅki, to the supreme Lord who rules in Tirupperuntuṟai, an independent settlement (taṉiyūr) in the Naṭuviṟkūṟu in Miḻalaikkūṟṟam, give the settlements which follow, after having made a sale-deed (vilaippiṟamāṇam) with ... and water (upakṣaya-dhārā-pūrvam-āka) for the donation of such settlements; the four great boundaries of the the endowed land (puravukku) which lies within Peruṉāvallūr, in the above-mentioned kūṟu in the Miḻalaikkūṟṟam are ⟨as follow⟩s.

⟨8–19⟩

  • The boundary on the eastern side is on the west of the boundary of Tirupperuntuṟai;

  • the boundary on the southern side is north of the boundary of Ciṟṟatampūr Marutaṅkuṭi, of the old lotus pond, and of the head-sluice of channel;

  • the boundary on the western side is east of the boundary in Vīramaṅkalam;

  • the northern boundary is south of the Vēḷḷāṟu river.

This being so, to Peruṉāvallūr which is within these four aforementioned boundaries, to Eḻuvaṉēri Vēṅkūr which is adjacent to Araiyar kuḷa in the Paṉaiṅkaiya region in the region of the northern Veḷḷāṟu and is within these four boundaries, and to Śrī Kaṇtamaṅkalam in this country which is adjacent to that, and is completely within these four boundaries, all the collective revenues that belong to these towns, and the dues from the taxes which bear names, whatever name they may have, all of them, having acquired them as a tax-free endowment, along with the water streams, by making ⟨this⟩ sale dead, the price being established to 3000 golden cakkaram coins, in exchange for these three thousand golds, I give these towns along with their water streams until the sun ans the moon.

⟨19–23⟩ The donation that I, Poṉṉambala Toṇṭaimāṉ, make to the supreme Lord (paramasvāmi) who is Lord ⟨in Tirupperuntuṟai⟩, on this day, as an endowment of lands to the temple without removing the cultivating tenants in the vicinity (aṟikil, that is, arukil) of [paḻantarāmmai] land in the Miḻalaikuṟṟu, shall be inscribed on copper and on stone, for the donation to last until the sun and the moon.

⟨23⟩ This is true.

1.

Between giving or protecting ⟨a donation⟩, protecting is better than giving ; from giving one obtains heaven, from protecting the place from which there is no falling down.

2.

Protecting the donation made by others has twice the meritorious quality than making oneself a donation; and by harming the gift made by others, one’s own gift becomes fruitless.

3.

Whoever may steal the land donated by him, or donated by another, becomes a warm in the excrements for sixty thousand years.

4.

The land which is given to brahmins should not be enjoyed nor taken for taxes, it is in this world the only sister for all the kings.

5.

This bridge of Dharma which is common to all the kings, you always must protect it [...]

⟨29–32⟩ Whoever harms this dharma, will incur in the same sin as if killing with his own hands his mother, father, guru, a brahmin, a calf or a tawny cow on the shores of the Gaṅgā.

⟨32⟩ This will last until the sun and the moon.

⟨32⟩ This is the truth.

Grant no. 2: Śaka year 1440

⟨1–3⟩ Prosperity! He possesses good fortune, he is lord of the great region, he is the one who wins over the enemy kings, he is chastise of the kings who commit mistakes with regard to language [or: of those who do not keep their word ], he is lord of the four oceans, he is famous heroic majesty, he is the great king Kr̥ṣṇadevarāyar.

⟨3–5⟩ While he is graciously exercising his rule, in the bahudhānya year which is the current Śaka year 1440, during the southern course ⟨of the sun⟩, in the autumn season, in the month vr̥ṣci which is known as …, in the first part ⟨of the lunar cycle⟩, on the sixth day, which is a Saturday, in the day ⟨of the star⟩ tiruvōṇam,

⟨5–7⟩ To the Supreme lord who rules over the gods in Caturvetimaṅkalam in Pavittira māṇikka nallūr, alias Tirupperuntuṟai, which is an indipendent town, and a Brahmin settlement in the division which is in the center of the Miḻalai kūṟṟam division,

⟨7–10⟩ Poṉṉampala Toṇṭaimāṉār, son of Ēkapperumāḷ Toṇṭaimāṉār, one who wears the holy feet as a crown, the lord who rules without any fear, the king of Aṟantāṅki in the Ilaṅkō country in the Vaḷanāṭu of Cuntara Pāṇṭiya where is the northern Veḷḷāṟu river,

⟨10–12⟩ at the time of his birth star, in order for the naivedyam offering for the ruling Lord to happen at the time of the morning junction and to occur as long as the moon and the sun will stand,

⟨12–`7⟩ Given along with its golden water-streams, the four great boundaries of Eastern Vijayapuram, in the Paṉaiṅkaya region of the rich country of Sundara Pandya where is the norther Vellāṟu, are the following:

  • To the west of the land of Paṉaiñkuḷam

  • To the north of the land of Kuṟuṅkākoṭṭai

  • To the west of the land of Upper Vijayapuram, to the paddy fields of the school

  • To the south of the land of the Maṅkala region

It is lying within these four boundaries just mentioned.

⟨17–19⟩ And it is fit for sale, exchange, gift, etc., which are joined with [….] all the eight types of enjoyment [of a rent-free land], namely:

  • nidhi (a treasure or a hoard, i. e. a natural hoard such as a mine)

  • nikṣepa, any treasure hidden or stored up by someone

  • akṣīṇa, permanent or lasting benefits

  • āgāmin, future benefits

  • sañcita, benefits already stored up

  • jala, waters

  • taru, trees

  • pāṣāṇa, stones

and with ownership rights with full authority.

⟨19–21⟩ They should take ⟨this village ⟩as a perennial gift, i.e., until the moon and the sun will stay as a whole [gift], as a tax-free gift and as land assigned to a deity/temple land, to be enjoyed as long as the sun goes.
