The importance of the Alagarmalai inscriptions was not recognised for a long time after the discovery as the estampages of the weather-worn inscriptions are mostly illegible,³ and their photographs published in the *ARE*⁴ are too small in size to show much detail. The attempts by Krishna Sastri⁵ and Subrahmanya Aiyer⁶ to edit the inscriptions from estampages were not successful.
