[1] Kalale Dalavais occupied prominent position in both Vijayanagar Empire and the kings of Yadhuvamsha of Mysore.

There are documentary evidences to show that Kalale enjoyed some prominence due to its proximity to kings until about 1831.

Mysore kings appear to have devoted much attention for improvement of Lakshmikanthaswamy temple.

The Mysore king's insignias like Shanka (Conch), Chakra (wheel) and Mathsya (fish) are available in the temple.

This temple is considered as an ancient protected monument by Archaeological Department of Government of Karnataka.
