History
The Kolli Hills are featured in several works of classical Tamil literature such as Silappathigaram, Manimekalai, Purananuru, and Ainkurnuru. The region was ruled by Valvil Ori around 200 AD, who is praised as one of the seven great philanthropists of ancient Tamil Nadu. Several poets have sung his valor and marksmanship, and his exploits are a popular part of folklore. Ori is said to have killed a lion, bear, deer, and a boar with a single arrow.
