¹ Mr. Krishna Sastri does well in not translating this term in his edition of the Veḷvikkuḍi grant and thus declining to follow Venkayya's lead in rendering it into ‘chief drummer’. பணை has other meanings besides ‘drum’, one of which is ‘a row of horses’. May பெரும்பணைக்காரன் mean chief cavalry officer?
