Tiruvarur,
Nagapattanam Taluk, Tanjavur District
On
the west wall of the mandapa in front of the Achalesvara shrine,
Tyagarajasvami temple
This
records an endowment of 30 kalanju of gold left with the Nagarattar of
Tiruvarur by Devan Arubattunalvan for burning a perpetual lamp before
god Tiruvaraneri-Mahdeva-Bhattaraka with the daily supply of an ulakku
of ghee by the measure Tirunilakantan. The person on whose behalf the
gift was made seems to have been known as Kalavan
Porundampondai-tirumulattanat-Tondar, probably implying that he was a
spiritual teacher of the donor. The writing seems to be late and the
inscription may be assigned to Rajedradeva or Vikrama-Chola.
