TEXT OF INSCRIPTIONS No. 125 (A. R. No. 119 of 1937-38) ŚRĪRAṄGAM, TRICHINOPOLY TALUK, TRICHINOPOLY DISTRICT Inner jamb of the Nānmugan-gōpura, right of entrance Dēvarāya II This undated record of Dēvarāya-Mahārāya is in Kannaḍa language engraved in Grantha characters. It registers a royal order (nirūpa) to Chauḍappa, the executive officer of Tiruchirāpaḷḷi, to restore to Uttamanambi, the sthānika of Śrīraṅgam, on a representation made by the latter, certain concessions granted to the sthānikas of the place during the time of Hiriya-Śiruparasa, and, in additions, to grant him the village Nōchchagarichi (Nochchikurichchi) along with some additional lands in another village as sarvamānya to be enjoyed by him in the same manner as it was being enjoyed in the days of Hiriya Dēvarāya Mahārāya and Vijayarāya Mahārāya. The order further enjoins the pārupatya to execute all the directions pertaining to the temple made by Uttamanambi. The present gift of lands was to be added on to an earliest royal gift of villages yielding 300 honuu made on the occasion of presenting golden horses and chariot (to the god). In recognition of his long service Uttamanambi is said to have been honoured by the king with bracelet, gold necklace and golden pinnacles (kaḷśa) to his house. This is published in S. I. I. Vol. xxiv, No. 310.
