Record summary
Pulluvan Pattu and related sarpa thullal performances are Kerala ritual traditions involving serpent songs, floor drawings, possession idioms, and household or temple ceremonies. They provide a strong comparative lead for studying how naga beings are represented through voice, bodily performance, and ritual transformation rather than through a modern encounter report. Documentation after 2010 includes heritage, anthropological, and performance studies, but terminology and local practice vary by community. The tradition should be approached as lived religion and performance, with claims interpreted in their cultural setting.
