These elements reflect the broader evolution of Tuluva traditions as communal thanksgivings tied to the land's bounty, blending animistic beliefs with agrarian observances.

Tulu oral traditions preserve cultural narratives central to Tuluva identity, though written forms of Tulu literature emerged in the 19th and 20th centuries. Colonial accounts from the British era, including district gazetteers of South Canara, describe the persistence of Tuluva cultural practices and festivals amid administrative changes, noting their role in maintaining social cohesion despite external influences.
