Goddess Mariamman, a respected divinity in South Indian and Tamil religions, is associated with rain, fertility, and protection.

Mariamma is said to protect her believers from disease, misfortune, and natural disasters, particularly epidemics, and is associated with healing and agricultural success.

This granite statue depicts Mariamma in a peaceful yet forceful attitude, symbolizing her dual character as a nurturer and defender.

She is frequently depicted standing or seated, holding a trident (trishula) or a water jug (kalash), which represents heavenly light and abundance.

Her posture, complete with traditional jewelry and a crown, exudes grace and authority.
