Kuttumukku Sree Mahadeva Temple History and Significance

The temple's presiding deity is Lord Shiva in the form of Kiratha Moorthi, symbolizing the divine hunter. According to legend, this form was assumed by Shiva to test Arjuna's devotion, culminating in the granting of the celestial weapon 'Pasupathastra'. The temple's idol is believed to be over 300 years old, with its consecration attributed to Khara Maharishi. Historically, the temple was associated with six illams (traditional Brahmin households), all of which have ceased to exist. A notable event in the temple's history involves an attempted attack by Tipu Sultan's army, which was thwarted by a swarm of bees, leading to the temple's preservation.
