Korravai

In the latter form, she is sometimes referred to by other names and epithets in the Tamil tradition of South India and Sri Lanka, such as Atha, Mari, Suli, and Neeli.

[4][5] She is mentioned in the Pattuppattu anthology – the long Tamil poems dated between 300 BCE to 300 CE, including the Neṭunalvāṭai, Maturaikkanci, Poruṇarāṟṟuppaṭai, and Paṭṭiṉappālai.

Her name is derived from the Tamil word korram, which means "victory, success, bravery".

Both the lion and blackbuck is shown with a standing Korravai in a rock-relief panel at the Varaha Mandapam of Mahabalipuram.

She is said to be the real mother of the Tamil Hindu god Murugan and her other children with Shiva as a form of Parvati.

Goddess Korravai, a form of the Hindu goddess Parvati and a revered deity in Tamil Hindu culture, is depicted atop the beheaded head and body of the slain buffalo-demon Mahishasura. This relief carving, originally from the remnants of a magnificent 10th-century CE Tamil Hindu temple, is now located within the Nayakar Palace Art Museum, Madurai.
