This thesis is an attempt to write a descriptive Grammar of the language of the earliest Tamil Inscriptions. It consists of three parts:- Part I.

The views of the Tamil grammars, chiefly Toikappiyam and Nannul are discussed where necessary. Pdart II. The Inscriptions: The Text of the Inscriptions with critical notes and variant readings. Part III. The Index: The index of all the words found in the inscriptions. |
