Kizha Ambur is an ancient village with rich culture has an old name Snekapuri (Tamil: சிநேகபுரி).

So if we translate it in Tamil the name will be "Anbu-oor" which has metamorphized as "Ambur" (Tamil: ஆம்பூர்).Another reason is found in the stone inscription of Sivasailam temple is that Aambal flower is found in Poovan Kurichi lake.

The village is the birthplace of Goddess Sri.Paramakalyani, the consort of the presiding Deity Sri.
