History:

Kolar was formerly known as Korahara, Kubarara, Korara, but in the Middle Ages it was called Koraharapura. Korahahapura means "violent city" in Kannada, and was the battlefield of the fighting Charkya dynasty in the north and the Chola dynasty in the south. In 1004 AD, the Chola dynasty annexed the chorale by 1116. The early history of Corral was edited by Fred Goodwill, director of the Wesrian Tamil Mission in Bangalore and Kolar Gold Fields, and his work has been published in many journals. Chorale, which preceded Bangalore, dates back to the 2nd century. The Western Ganga dynasty had Kolar as its capital and ruled Mysore, Coimbatore, Salem, and Travancore.
