(A.R.
No. 715 of 1909)
Alambakkam,
Lalgudi Taluk, Tiruchirapalli District
On
the south wall of the central shrine, Kailasanatha temple
This
registers the sale, free of taxes, of a land held in common by the sabha
of Dantivarmamangalam a brahmadeya on the northern
bank of the river, to the temple of Amaresvara-Perumal for 16 kalanju
of gold which had been endowed to the temple for a perpetual lamp by
a member for the alungana (name lost0 of the sabha.
No.
128
(A.R.
No. 44 of 1910)
Tirukkarugavur
(Tirukkalavur), Sorgali Taluk, Tanjavur District
On
the north wall of the central shrine, Madhuvanesvara temple
This
gives a list of the lands, 3 veli in all, which had been endowed
from taxes by order of the king (Udaiyar).
The writing seems to be of the time of Rajendra-Chola I.
No.
129
(A.R.
No. 45 of 1910)
This
is much damaged. This seems
to register the sale of some land belonging to four persons by virtue of their right of worship in the temple of Tirukkarugavur Alvar for 24
days in the month, which they had purchased from certain individuals previously, and which they now disposed of to the
temple for 20
Ilakkasu.
No.
130
(A.R.
No. 46 of 1910)
On
the same wall
This
records an endowment of 3 veli of land (by the king) at the request of Singan
Kaliyan alias Uttamasola Muvendavean of Konmaipakkam
with its annual produce of 710 kalam of paddy specifically
allotted for the various requirements of worship in the temple of
Tirukkarugavur-Mahadevar. This
appointment was made through the officers Koyil-Mayilai alias Madhurantaka-Muvnedavelan
of Sirringan and Sattan Pasupati alias Kaliyan
Tandesvaran. The and is
said to have adjoined a bigger plot of 40 veli endowed to the
temple at Tiruvalanjuli, from which it seems to have bee separated as
being in excess of the needs of that temple.
This is evidently an inscription of Uttama-Chola.
No.
131
(A.R.
No. 234A of 1911)
Kumbhakonam,
Kumbhakonam Taluk, Tanjavur District
On
the north and west walls of the central shrine, Nagesvara temple
The
details of the date given in this inscription viz., 5th year,
Ani. [su.]5, Mula, Friday correspond to A.D. 975, June 16, .85, but with
two corrections: weekday being Wednesday
and nakshatra Magha.
This
records a sale of land a quarter veli in extent made by the Mulaparudaiperumakkal
of Tirukkudamukkil to Madevan Kandi a servant-woman attached to the Karralippirattiyar-Velam
at Tanjavur for 20 kasu which was endowed by her for the maintenance
of a person who was to supply a pot of water from the Kaveri
river thrice every day for the sacred bath of the god.
Karralippirattiyar seems to be the same as the donor
figuring n No. 95 above and probably different from her namesake who was
the wife of the Kodumbalur chief Bhuti-Vikramaesari the subordinate
of Sundara-Chola Parantaka II.
No.
132
(A.R.
No. 243 of 1911)
On
the west and south walls of the same shrine
This
inscription is damaged. It seems to record the distribution of the sheep which had
been presented to the temple of Tirukkilkottattu-Paramasvami at
Tirukkudamukkil in Pambur-nadu, among several individuals for the supply
of the necessary ghee by them for burning three perpetual lamps in the
temple. The writing closely resembles that of No. 7.
This is probably assignable to Uttama-Chola.

No.
133
(A.R.
No. 244 of 1911)
On
the same walls
This
is also probably a record of Uttama-chola.

temple of Tirukkilkottattu-Mahadeva by a manradi (shepherd)
of the place named Devan Nakkan
No.
134

Tiruchchengatiangudi,
Nannilam Taluk, Tanjavur District
On
the north wall of the Ganapatisvara shrine, Uttarapatisvara temple
This
registers a sale of two pieces of land tax-free by the sabha of
Marugal in Tirumarugal-nadu, to the temple for Paramaesvara at
Tiruchchengattangudi for the gold received by them from the temple and
from an officer (or chief) named Godukulavan Virasolan alias
Uttamasola-Nenmalinattu-Muvendavelan, to provide for the
maintenance of two perpetual lamps in the temple. The surname of the
latter suggests that the inscription may be assigned to Uttama-Chola.
No.
135

Ilaiyur-nadu on the southern bank of the river, for the maintenance of a
perpetual lamp, and for offerings during the morning and mid-day
services in the temple of Tiruchchelur-Mahadeva at
Rajakesari-chaturvedimangalam. The
mention of the village called after Viranarayana (Parataka I) and the
reference to a previous gift made in the 8th year of
Rajakesarivarman (evidently Gandaritya) makes the record assignable to
the reign of Uttama-Chola.
