[edit] Disputes

Early History "The Guruvayur temple is said to be at least 5,000 years old": Who says? No historian would say. Even this article is not able to trace any history beyond 17th century. Cite the sources even if it is mythical.

Onslaught by invaders " ... as Muslim conquered much of Kerala ..". when did that happen? Is it about the Tippu/Hyder attack? Then one can as well describe the US invasion of Iraq as Christian attack.

History? Assertions in these paragraphs are not history; individual beliefs only.

[edit] Note about Tamil reference

The Tamil script does not differentiate between voiced and voiceless consonants (pairs like p and b, k and g etc), so it probably wasn't called "Kuruvayur".--172.215.240.230 (talk) 17:42, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
