My best pics from Trade Fair-Kerala Day Celebrations on Nov 22,2014! Malabar Theyyam-Character: Kandakarnan/Agni Kandakarnan! Teyyam, Theyyattam or Thira is a popular ritual form of worship of North Malabar in Kerala, India! In this Theyyam the head gear stands tall some as tall as 50 feet. The costume is made from coconut fronds, palm leaves, bamboo etc. This Theyyam dances on fire embers with lighted torches tied to the waist. The head gear also has lighted torches. It is awe inspiring Theyyam as all the materials used in the costume are highly inflammable. I saw it for the first time and have thoroughly enjoyed it!
