Stray finds of pottery inscriptions have been reported from surface explorations or by chance at Attur,¹² Jambai,¹³ T. Kallupatti and S. Pappinayakkanpatti,¹⁴ Odaikalpalaiyam,¹⁵ and Sivakasi¹⁶ (Table 1.⁴, Map II). Two more unpublished inscriptions recently found on the surface at Poluvampatti¹ are noteworthy as the only ones found so far in the Early Vaṭṭeḻuttu script (ca. 5th century A.D.).
