A SECOND PLATE OF BHASKARA RAVIVARMAN.
used to mean the bathing of the image of the god with water or the place where such a bath takes place. The words padi-pada-mülattar, prakṛitiyar, adigari, etc. occur in several other documents and have been explained by those who have edited those inscriptions.
The names of places that occur in the record are Tirunelli, Kurumburai nadu and Kilkkäṭṭiy-pPolachcherikkal. Of these, the first two are the names of a town and of a district respectively in the Wydad and the third is the name of a plot of land, which is not possible to be identified.
