Notes
Leaves, recto, left: {ōm} civamay{am} — characters without puḷḷi, distinction between long and short e and o, unblackened. — palm leaf — Account book: Thanjavur (the rice bowl of India) can produce up to three harvests per year; there was a special system of price calculation (nel-muṟi): [Tamil Lexicon, vol.
iv, p. 2347] "a system of assessment in Tanjore under which each village was assessed
with a definite quantity of [p. 2348] grain, calculated on the average produce of
past years and convertible into money-rent at the current market price in each year." Possibly this is also about means of transport (as in CT 671): “vehicle rental” (vaṇṭi
vāṭakai).
