Husnabad

Husnabad is about 30 kms to the south of Karimnagar.An undated fragmentary Kannada inscription belonging to theperiod of Kalyani Chalukyan ruler Satyasraya Irvebedengadeva(A.D.997-1008) son of Tailapa II is noticed on the tankbund ofthe village, but the gift portion of it is missing. Another undated Telugu inscription of seven lines belonging to Kakatiya period is found lying in a field near the tank. It records certain gifts made by Murusanti Ekkatis or warriors ofMahamandalesvara Rudradeva or Rudramadevi to god Rudresvara. The grant includes the Ratana-chenu (dry land with a Ratana) and four puttis of paddy to the god. QueenRudramadevi, who ably ruled like a male king, is also mentionedas Rudradeva in certain inscriptions. In the absence of the date it is difficult to identify whether this inscription belongs to theperiod of Kakati Rudradeva or Rudramadevi. Husunabad is a proto historic site with large number of Megalithic burials. Thereis also a huge lake by name Kalkicheruvu supposed to have beenconstructed by the Megalithic folk.

The temple of the Kakatiya period now known asSiddesvaralayam lying on the hill beside the Yellamma Chervuor tank in the village is totally rebuilt. From the ground level steps are also built recently to reach the temple on the hill. TheSiva linga containing the Lakshanodharana lines installed on ablack granite pedestal of about two feet height with typicalkakatiyan mouldings is noticed here. The Vaisya community andthe other villagers are known to have rebuilt the temple in recent times
