According to mythology, Attukal Bhagavathy is considered to be an incarnation of Kannagi of Silapathikaram. Devi Kannagi, who has immense influence in the tradition and culture of Tamil Nadu and Kerala, do have four temples - three in Kerala and one in Batticalao in eastern Sri Lanka. As per the legend Kannagi, after putting Madurai to ashes, came to Chera Nadu, the present Kerala. During the journey, her feet touched the cold waters of the Kili in Trivandrum. Thus came the name Attukal, which originated from two words -Atturu – river and Kal – feet. The year 1997 witness the largest gathering with around 18 lakh women assembled in the temple.
