| Kannur
district derived its name from the location of its
headquarters at Kannur town. The old name 'Cannanore'
is the anglicised form of the Malayalam word Kannur.
According to one opinion, 'Kannur' is a derivation
from Kanathur, an ancient village, the name of which
survives even today in one of the wards of Kannur
Municipality.
Another version is that Kannur might have assumed
its name from one of the , deities of the Hindu pantheon,
a compound of two words, Kannan (Lord Krishna) and
Ur (place) making it the place of Lord Krishna. In
this context, it is worth mentioning that the deity
of the Katalayi Sreekrishna temple was originally
installed in a shrine at Katalayi Kotta in the south
eastern part of the present Kannur town.
Kannur
is a land with a resonant past. Myths and legends
abound. The ships of Solomon, they say: anchored along
our coasts to collect timber for building the 'Temple
of the Lord'. Kannur finds mention as NAURA in the
'Periplus of the Erithrean Sea' a Greek work of great
antiquity.
Tucked
far away from the maddening crowd, lies Kannur, the
most enchanting district of Northern Kerala. The scene
is breathtaking. The Lakshadweep Sea washes the sands
of sugary beaches laced with rows of green coconut
palms. Long rivers break into silvery spray and merge
into the blue green waters of the sea. Obviously Kerala
is the most beautiful of all Indian states and Kannur
definitely shows Kerala at its best.
