family
One of the 4 Brahmin families who had accepted Christian faith from St. Thomas
Apostle was Sankarapuri . Mahadevarpattanam was a town east of Kodungallore
where St. Thomas landed. Mahadevarpattanam was divided into 4 regions , of which
Manigramam was inhabited by Sankarapuri family. The first person of Sankarapuri
family who received baptism from the saint was renamed Thomman . In
AD 835 , when the town was attacked , Sankarapuri family with other christian
families migrated to Angamally. Opposition of Samoodiri in 13 th Century made
them to settle in Kuravilangad . Threat of Muslims compelled their family patriarch
Ettymatthen Tharakan to seek the help of Nilackal King at Chayal. Impressed by
the King Maharajah , Etty Mathen Tharakan was made Chief of his army .
It was Nilackal royal family , who later came to be known as
Pandalam Kings. Owing to attack of the robber gangster Vakrapuly and
deadly diseases , the King and his men migrated to Pandalam . The
King built a palace , south of Achankovil river. The King gave the
land , from the palace to the east until Thazhoorkadavu , under the
control of Etty Mathen Tharakan . Owing to the presence of a small
church at Thumpamun , Etty Mathen Tharakan and family moved to
Thumpamun , 4 km east of Pandalam . There was only a few nasrani
families in Thumpamun at that time. The property of Kaithavana
Kudumbun can still be seen at Thumpamun,
1 km inside the public road north of Thumpamun Valiyapally .Once
when there was a dispute regarding the construction of church , the
King himself came to oversee the construction .
Kaithavana family flourished and prospered over the centuries ,in
Thumpamun and Kaippattoor . Kanampara is one of the branches of this
great family of Kaithavana of which my grandmother is a member.
