The preparation and publication of this `Karandai Tamil Sangam Plates of Rajendra-Chola I : 8th Year' has a long history. It has passed through several hands and it was ultimately finalised and made ready for the press by Shri K. G. Krishnan, Superintending Epigraphist for Dravidian Inscriptions. Although some notes have appeared about the importance of this record, the critical edition of the entire text has not been publised so far. It was first thought that this should be published in Epigraphia Indica, in several parts by giving separate pagination. But finally, considering the nature and volume of the materials, it has been decided to publish it as a Memoir of Archaeological Survey of India so that the entire material could be made available in one place. Though delayed the publication of the text of this important set of Copper Plates will, I am sure, be welcomed by all scholars of ancient Indian History. By the discovery of these plates we have now got the longest and heaviest set of Copper Plates so far discovered in India.
