Legend of Masani Amman Temple
Source
Thousands of years ago, Annamalai was ruled by a ruler called Nannur who owned hectares of land that had farmlands and mango groves. The panchayat of Annamalai was also called Nannur at that time. The ruler once announced the harshest levels of punishments for anyone found trespassing his property or plucking fruits. A lady, unaware of these measures, happened to eat a mango. She was immediately caught and sentenced to death. She and the villagers pleaded for forgiveness as she wasn't aware of the rules, but Nannur didn't budge and killed the lady. Later, the villagers fought against Nannur and killed him in a battle. After the victory, they built a shrine in the memory of the lady and named her Masani Devi, Masani meaning graveyard.
