c18.s1.24

10. A fragmentary inscription of one Rājagambhīra-Śambhuvarāyaṇ, dated in the year following Śaka 1180 (A.D. 1259), at the Ammaiappeśvara temple, Paḍaveḍu.⁵ The donor gave a village, the name of which is lost, to the temple; among the taxes there levied were the *Uvaccan-per-k-kaṭamai* and the *Ācuvikaṇ-per-k-kaṭamai*. The tax on the Uvaccas, which occurs in the list immediately before that on the Ājīvikas, and which is also found in the Tiruvorriyūr inscription (No. 6 above), is of some significance, and is considered below.⁶
