History of Golu
The tradition of displaying golu dolls originated in the Vijayanagara Empire (14th–16th century), where it was an imperial practice during Navaratri. Over centuries, it became a household custom across Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh. The Kalasham has always held prime importance in kolu bommai displays as it represents the spiritual foundation upon which the Golu is built. Today, dassara dolls like the Kalasham not only carry spiritual symbolism but also express the cultural legacy passed down through generations.
