Village Culture in Tamil Nadu
 
  • Printer-friendly version

The name Jallikattu was introduced in the 16th century, until the sport was known as Eru Thazhuvudhal, meaning to hug the Bull. Most of the temple carnivals of every town would announce Jallikattu as a sporting event during the celebration. Eventually, the winning bulls are treated and positioned especially as the alpha male for breeding activity. Here if a bull is being tamed more than two times, its vigor is not considered apt for breeding. It is then castrated and sent for farming or transportation purposes. Calves from strong bulls are still found to be taken care of by village temples. They are trained for tough vigor and later made to participate in Jallikattu when full-grown; this practice is very much part of village culture in Tamil Nadu. Here is some glimpse of bull preparation for the Jallikattu event.
