The exact age of the Thathoor
Vishnu Temple at Mavoor is not clearly documented. While several temples in the
Kozhikode district are officially recognised as being over two thousand years
old, and many others are believed to have been built between the 1st and 9th
centuries CE, no specific historical records are publicly available to confirm
the original date of construction of this temple. Like many ancient temples in
Kerala, the antiquity of the Thathoor Vishnu Temple is understood through a
combination of oral traditions and regional history rather than written
evidence, placing its origins in an undetermined but ancient period.
