SII 3.95: original edition by H. Krishna Sastri XI.—INSCRIPTIONS OF PARAKESARIVARMAN PARANTAKA I. No. 95.—ON THE SOUTH WALL OF THE MANDAPA IN FRONT OF THE ABHIRAMESVARA SHRINE AT TIRUVAMATTUR.

This inscription is dated in the 3rd year of Parakēsarivarman and registers a gift of gold by a certain Gaṇḍarāditta Pallavaraiyaṉ to the temple at Tiruvāmāttūr, which was a dēvadāna in Mīvaḻi-Vāvalūr-nāḍu, a subdivision of Aruvānāḍu. Gaṇḍarāditta Pallavaraiyaṉ was evidently an officer of Gaṇḍarāditya who is known from copper-plate records to have been the second son of king Parāntaka I. Parakēsarivarman of this record may have, therefore, to be identified with Parāntaka I.
