This inscription is engraved on two stones, which fit to each other. It is dated “in the fourteenth year of Ko-Rājakesarivarman, alias Tribhuvanachakravartin Śrī-Kulottuṅga-Śoṛa-deva, who was pleased to sit on the throne of heroes, (which consisted of) pure gold.” The fourth line mentions “Āmūr-nāḍu, (a division) of Āmūr-koṭṭamSee page 64, above. Āmūru-koṭṭa is also mentioned in a copper-plate grant of Śaka 1558 (expired); Ind. Ant. Vol. XIII, p. 132, plate iv b, line 1. Āmūr-nāḍu and Āmūr-koṭṭam are probably named after Āmūr or Āmbūr, a town in the Velūr Tālluqa of the North Arcot District and a station on the Madras Railway; see Sewell's Lists, Vol. I, p. 163. in Jayaṅkoṇḍa-Śoṛa-maṇḍalam.” The seventh line contains the name of the god Ādidāsa Chaṇḍeśvara.Ātidāsacaṇṭeśvarar. See page 92, note 6, and page 116, note 3.

GEṄGOṆḌA MAṆḌAPA. Madras Survey Map, No. 53. The modern name is perhaps a corruption of Gaṅgai-koṇḍāṉ Maṇḍapa and connected with Gaṅgai-koṇḍa Choḷa, a prince who, according to Dr. Burnell (South- Indian Palaeography, 2nd edition, p. 45, note 1), is mentioned in an inscription at Karuvūr in the Coimbatore District. I read the name gaṁgaikoṇḍa-cola on both faces of a silver coin, which is figured by Sir W. Elliot (Coins of Southern India, plate iv, No. 152).
