The village may have originated in the 15th or 17th century, although the exact date is unknown. The Chalukya emperors, who ruled this region of India, called for war against the Pallavas. The Chalukyas attained victory.
The Salukyas then decided to wage war against the Cholazs Empire, which administered the village and surrounding areas. At this time, the Cholazs Empire extended from Indonesia to Sri Lanka and its rulers were reluctant to conduct war in northern India.[ citation needed ] The Cholazs had well-trained soldiers and more than 5,000 war elephants. Nevertheless, the Chalukyas defeated them, even though they lacked an equal elephant army.
The Pallavas then decided to wage war on the Salukyas to reclaim their autonomy. The Pallavas, expecting the Chalukya army, camped in "Palla puram" (the namesake of Palla puram). The Chalukyas encamped in Vellanur village. The armies clashed in Peruvalanallur, along the Pullambadi Canal. The fighting lasted 14 to 18 days and is one of the longest wars in Tamil Nadu history, with many soldiers killed on both sides. Finally, the Palla secured the victory and recovered their autonomy.
Some stone culvert remnants date from this period, located in a cremation ground along Vellanur road near Teppakulam and the Trichy-Ariyalur main road in Peruvala Nallur. A sword that may be a remnant of the war has been discovered by a pallar community village farmer in his field.
In the last 8–10 years, residents have been moving out of the village to Trichy, a large city with better job opportunities in non-agricultural industries. Because of this, the village's population is quite low, and agricultural production has fallen.

Previously foreign empires held sway over the region, and the nucleus of power was outside modern Karnataka. The medieval era can be broadly divided into several periods: The earliest native kingdoms and imperialism; the successful domination of the Gangetic plains in northern India and rivalry with the empires of Tamilakam over the Vengi region; and the domination of the southern Deccan and consolidation against Muslim invasion. The origins of the rise of the Karnataka region as an independent power date back to the fourth-century birth of the Kadamba Dynasty of Banavasi, the earliest of the native rulers to conduct administration in the native language of Kannada in addition to the official Sanskrit.
