This fragmentary record is of special interest as it is written in archaic Tamil characters. It refers to Kalikēsari-chaturvēdimaṅgalam, a dēvadāna village in Puḻaḷkōṭṭam, which may probably be the surname of Tirumullaivāyil where the inscription is found. The king Pārthivēndravarman mentioned here is also perhaps different from and earlier than the Pārthivēndrādhipativarman to whom the records of this group belong.
