History

Feudal status

The mother of the Maharaja of Travancore and her sister received the principality of Attingal in joint appanage. They were consequently styled the Senior and Junior Rani (the female form of Raja or Rana) of Attingal, respectively. Flag for former princely state of Travancore Travancore or Thiruvithaamkoor (Malayalam: തിരുവിതാങ്കൂര്‍ [], തിരുവിതാംകൂര്‍ [], തിരുവിതാങ്കോട് []) was a princely state in India with its capital at Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram). ...

Their husbands, known as Koil Tampurans, came from one of four or five princely houses who were closely related to the Royal House.

Attingal Revolution

The grant of Anchuthengu to the English provoked the wrath of a section of the local population and in 1697 the English factory was subjected to a violent but futile attack. In 1721, the English factors felt the need to appease the Rani of Attingal (Queen) after alienating the local population by their "overbearing behaviour". They sent a set of presents to the Rani. The local agents of the "Pillamar"(the famous ettuveetil pillamar) demanded that those presents should be given to them for transmission to the Rani. When it was denied, 140 Englishmen were massacred on their way to the Rani, and the fort was laid under siege for nearly six months. The fort was relieved only when reinforcements for the English arrived from Talassery.
