Revathi Pattathanam

Revathi Pattathanam is a prestigious seven-day annual assembly of scholars held at the Tali Mahadeva Temple in Kozhikode. Dating back to the 14th century, this assembly was traditionally patronized by the Zamorins of Calicut to honor excellence in Vedic learning, grammar, and philosophy.

The event takes place during the Malayalam month of Thulam (October/November), specifically on the Revathi asterism. Historically, scholars would engage in intense intellectual debates to win the title of Bhatta and a purse of coins. Today, it remains a significant cultural and intellectual gathering, where the "Mangala Pathram" (citation of merit) is awarded to eminent scholars, continuing Kozhikode's legacy as a historical center of learning and Vedic scholarship.
