This palm-leaf manuscript includes two different works from Nallur, Sri Lanka. The very first page that contains the title of the work is illegible due to the deteriorating condition of the script. However, the first part of the manuscript is written in Tamil and could be dated to the late 18th or 19th century. The Tamil text depicts a song of praise to god Piḷḷaiyār called Piḷḷaiyār Kāppu. The second part of the manuscript contains text that is written in both Tamil and Grantha scripts. The text suggests a form of religious incantation. Extent and format of original material: Palm-leaf manuscript, 074 leaves. Physical characteristics: L 24 cm, W 02 cm. Author(s) of original material: Unknown.
