Aanaimalai, a place near Pollachi was earlier ruled by a king called Naanan. He had a very special mango tree in his farm on the riverside of Aaliyar, which he was so fond of. He was so particular that nobody was allowed to use neither the mangoes nor its leaves.
Once, a group of girls were having their bathe in the Aaliyar river and saw a mango floating on the river which belonged to nanans tree, on anxiety one of the girl picked the mango and ate it, even after several pleadings made by her father, the king sentenced her to death. After some time the villagers in that particular area formed a female figure in lying state in remembrance of the innocent girl on the graveyard sand and started worshipping her. In due course she was worshipped by the name "Maasani"
Later Kozhinkhosargal defeated king Naanan and destroyed that particular mango tree. It is believed that Lord Rama on his way in search of Seetha, was absorbed by the power of this temple, stopped here and performed his meditation adding glory to this temple.

ARULMIGU KONIAMMAN THIRUKOVIL - KARUVALUR

The Koniamman temple is another note worthy ancient temple in Coimbatore. The history of the temple and deity dates back to 13th Century A.C.
The temple situated in the heart of the city, is built by a leader of a small cult known as "IRULAS" 600 years ago. The small village was also named as "Covanputhur" after the leader of this group, whose name was "Covan". This Covanputhur later on changed as Coimbatore. This ancient temple was situated in the north of Coimbatore near Sanganur stream.
Later when there was a fear of "Chera" invasion the "illangosar" tribe which was ruling at that time, built a new fort and to guard this fort, they built a temple and named the predominent deity as Koniamman. After this tribes ruling came to an end, the temple also had a sluggish period. Realising the importance of this temple, during the Mysore dynasty one of its kings renovated the temple and consecrated the Devi Koniamman in the style of "Mahisasuramardhini".
