Angalaamman is a name given to the village deity Angala Parameshwari. However, Ankalamma is a non-Vedic deity and, like so many popular Tamil deities, she seems to have originated in a fierce guardian figure. In the rituals dedicated to her she is appeased with blood. Ankalamma's shrines are usually located outside of the village in groves of trees. They are usually not proper temples, but very simple stone structures. She is one of the fiercest forms of the mother Goddess Amman, and is worshipped by the Indians, especially by the South Indians.
