    Theyyams are thought to assist hunters in large numbers. The sacred weapons of these religions are the bow and arrows. Before beginning to hunt, our ancestors used to pray and make offerings. Kulavan Vayanattu Hunting gods include Vishnumoorthi, Veerambinar, Sree Muthapan, Puthichon Theyyam, Malappilan, Pooloon, and Vettechekon, among others.
