________________ 138 EPIGRAPHIA INDICA. (Vol. XI. "In the 22nd year of the reign of the glorious king Jațāvarman alias the emperor of the three worlds, the glorious Vira-Pāņdyadēva, on the day of Böhiņi, which corresponded to the second tithi of the first fortnight and to the oth solar day of the month of Rishabha." I take this date to correspond to Sunday he 3rd May 1318 A.D. This day was actually the 8th solar Rishabha (Jyaishtha), not the 4th as found in the transcript of the inscription; the 2nd tithi of the first fortnight of Jyaishtha (Rishabha) ended about 13 ghatikas after mean sunrise at Lanks, but the nakshatra Rohiņi had ended about 26 ghafikas before sunrise. It would therefore appear that the nakshatra quoted was that current at the beginning of the tithi, though it had ended before the day which is called after that tithi. 92.-In the Tiruttaļisvara temple at Tirupputtur. 1 Svast[i] Sri [118] Ko-Chchadaivan(mar-āņa] Tr[i]bhuvanachobakravatt[i]ga! sri Virk-Pandiyadevarku yaoda 44 vada Dhant-nāyarra 2 5 tèdiy[um]' pūrvva-pakahattu prathamaiyum Brihaspati-viramum perra Mülatta nål "In the 44th year (of the reign) of king Jaţăvarmen alias the emperor of the three worlds, the glorious Vira-Pandyadēva, on the day of Müla, which corresponded to a Thursday, to the first tithi of the first fortnight and to the 5th solar day of the month of Dhanus." This date corresponds to Thursday, the 2nd December 1339 A.D., on which day the first tithi of the first fortnight of Pausha (Dhanus) ended 32 ghatikās after mean sunrise at Lanka, and the nakshatra Müla was current at sunrise and ended about 41 ghatikās after it. 98.-In the Tiruttaļisvara temple at Tirupputtür. 1 Svasti 6[r]i [ll] Ko-Chchadaipanmar=āņa Tr[i]bhuvanachchakravattiga! sri-Vira Pandiyadevarka yanda 46 vadu Karkadaga-näyarpa 14 tõdi]" 2 pūrvva-pakshutta [pa]ájamiyum Somaváramum perra Uttirattu nä). "In the 46th year of the reign) of king Jațavarman alias the emperor of the three worlds, the glorious Vira-Pāņdyadēva, - on the day of Uttara-Phalguni, which corresponded to a Monday and to the fifth tithi of the first fortnight (and) to the 14th solar day of the month of Karkataka." This date apparently corresponds to Monday, the 2nd August 1339 A.D. On that day, the fifth tithi of the first fortnight of Srivada (Karkataka) ended about 15 ghatikas after mean sunrise at Lanks, and the nakshatra Uttara-Phalguni was current at sunrise, and ended abont 6 ghatikās after it. However, the calculated date was actually the 15th solar Karkataka, and not the 14th as stated in the inscription. 94.- In the Tiruttaļisvara temple at Tirupputtür. 1 [6] Svasti sri [ll] Ko-Chchadaipapmar-apa Tr[i]bhu vaqachchakravatt[i]ga! śr[i]-Vira-P[a]odiyadēvarkku yåpdu 4[9]" vadu Mithunanäyarru 21 tõdim? puruva-pakkattu tavadesiyam Aditya-v[*]rama[m] p[e]rra Anilatta nå!.
