This inscription is dated in the 2+7th year of Śaḍaiya-Māṟaṉ who is identical with Rājasimha, and registers a gift of sheep by a certain Nāgaṉ-Vikkiramādittaṉ for a perpetual lamp to the god Tiru . . . . śurattēvar of Arikēsarinallūr, a brahmadēya in Aḻa-nāḍu. As Śiṉṉamaṉūr was known as Arikēsarinallūr, it may have been founded by the early Pāṇḍya king called Arikēsarin. In another record of this king from the same place, the god is called Tirunaḍuvu-Bhaṭāra, probably because of the location of the temple with reference to the village.
