Jammada Okka

About the Okka

It is said that the name of the Okka was ‘Jamma Makkada’ until 18th Century, which was eventually shortened to ‘Jammada’

Intermarriage

All the men in the Okka were captured and killed by Tipu’s Sodiers. The only male left in the Okka died by a tiger attack when he had gone to cut bothh for Kavery Sankramana. His last daughter was married to a Muruvanda man who adopted the Jammada manepedha and continued this Okka. Therefore there is no intermarriage between Jammada and Muruvanda Okkas.
