    //During the epoch of Kantapurana during the epic war of Murukan with asura king Cûrapatman, Murukan's sacred arrow from his bow is said to have fallen on the place called Katira Vel. Like all ancient shrines and temples, the origin of this Verukalam Pati Muruka Vel is also legendary. The Vedda tribes revered the location and the Vel for worship and ever since it has been a shrine.

    This had become a recognized temple in the Kulakoddan era. and in the regime of the Vanniyars. Tradition has it that a hidden treasure was revealed by Murukan to a Cettiyar on his pilgrimage to Kataragama from South India. With the proceeds he built a grand temple later demolished in the 16th century by the Portuguese. There are many inscriptions regarding the history of the temple from ancient times//

    Verugal is one of the sacred places in Trincomalee. Verugal Murugan is known as
    Sithira Velayuthar. Verugal Kovil is an ancient Murugan Temple which is very special
    and famous as it is situated near Mahawali Ganga river.
    Verugal Kovil annual festival season is in September (tamil months - Aavani & Puratadhi).
    Murugan devotees come from different parts of the country in large numbers and
    stay in Verugal until the last festival - Theertham (water cutting).
    You will experience the superficial power and blessings of Sithira Velayuthar during festival time.
