Summary

Description	English: The Keralolpathi (literally creation of Kerala) is a Malayalam work that deals with the origin of the land of Kerala. Shungunny Menon ascribes the authorship of this work to Thunchaththu Ramanujan Ezhuthachan, a 17th century scholar of the Malabar region of India. The Keralolpathi is mostly an expansion from an earlier Sanskrit work known as the Kerala Mahatmayam. That work is classed among the Hindu Puranas as an Upa Purana (or sub Purana) of the Bhoogola Purana. മലയാളം: കേരളത്തിന്റെ പ്രാചീനചരിത്രമെന്നോണം ധാരാളം ഐതിഹ്യങ്ങളും കേട്ടുകേൾവികളും ഉൾച്ചേർത്തു് വിവരിക്കുന്ന ഒരു പ്രാചീനഗ്രന്ഥമാണു് കേരളോല്പത്തി. സംസ്കൃതത്തിൽ രചിക്കപ്പെട്ട കേരളമാഹാത്മ്യം മുതലായ ഐതിഹ്യഗ്രന്ഥങ്ങളെ പിന്തുടർന്നുകൊണ്ടു് കേരളചരിത്രത്തിനെക്കുറിച്ചുള്ള ഐതിഹ്യങ്ങൾ കൃത്യമായ ദേശകാലക്രമമില്ലാതെ അലക്ഷ്യമായി കുത്തിക്കെട്ടിയ ഒരു സംഗ്രഹമാണു് ഈ കൃതി.
