Malom also known as maloth is a hilly village located on the slopes of Western Ghats (the malanad region of Malabar) in the Vellarikundu taluk of Kasaragod district of Kerala, India.

History and culture

The name Malom is originated from "മലകളുടെ ലോകം --- മഹാലോകം" ("The land of hills" in Malayalam). Malom is also known for its cultural heritage, as being referred to in the history of many temples and taravadus in Kasaragod district. A Muslim theyyam (known as "Mukri-Poker") along with other theyyams are practiced in Malom Kuloom temple and other temples. Malom is also an early Christian (especially Roman Catholic Syrian Christian) migrated area in Kasaragod district itself and have a number of Roman Catholic Syrian churches.

Ancient Stone Scripts

Recently some ancient stone scripts were found from the Maruthom hills of Malom. This stone scripts confirm the existence of people in BC 300. Archaeologists thought that the place was on the ancient spice way between Mysore and the coastal areas of north Malabar.

Migration from the South

The famine after World War II incited a large-scale migration of Roman Catholic Syrian Christians (Saint Thomas Christians, also called Nasrani) from Central-South Kerala to this area. The migration continued well into the 1970s and '80s. A vast majority of these migrants are from Pala and Kottayam who had a completely different social and agricultural background. These people brought new agricultural practices to this area. They introduced cash crops like rubber and daily staples like tapioca to the region. The Syro-Malabar Catholic Church gave significant support to this migration by providing churches, discipline, schools, hospitals and other infrastructure. Malom is one of the end points of Syrian Christians migration to North Malabar.
