Sirumalai

Sirumalai's history is intertwined with local legends and folklore. While not extensively documented in mainstream historical records, the area has been inhabited for centuries by tribal communities who have a deep connection with the land. The region was once under the control of local chieftains and later came under the influence of various empires that ruled the plains of Tamil Nadu. The hills served as a refuge during times of conflict and provided resources for the surrounding communities. The area's rich biodiversity and strategic location have contributed to its historical significance, although much of its past remains shrouded in local traditions and oral narratives.
