Historical Significance and Regional Influence
Silambam holds a revered place in Indian history. Warriors like Puli Thevar, Veerapandiya Kattabomman, and the Maruthu Pandiyars famously wielded this art in their resistance against British colonial forces. Despite bans imposed during colonial rule, Silambam survived and flourished once India regained independence, and today it stands as one of the most respected and widely practiced Indian martial arts.
