Description

taken at muyyam muchilottu bhagavathy temple during the perumkaliyattam (theyyam) conducted after 31 years.

( the most important thing I noticed about this theyyam is the feminine looks, movements & eyes. The theyyam was gentle and fierce at the same time.)

Theyyam (theyyattam) is a ritual dance form popular in northern Kerala. Theyyam is normally performed in temples/Kavu/kOOttam mostly in Kannore and Kasrgode districts in few places in Kozhikode district. The name theyyam is derived from the malayalam name for God (daivam). During the ritual the artist is considered as God and they complain ask for blessings as if they are talking to God.
