The history of Yali

A guardian born in stone.

The Yali (யாளி, also called Vyala) is the mythical guardian of South Indian temples: a lion's body, an elephant's trunk and tusks, and a serpent's tail. It stands at temple gateways and on the pillars of great halls, keeping watch over everything that enters.

  1. Sangam era

    Ancient Tamil poetry speaks of the Yāḷi, a fearless creature.

  2. Temple gateways

    Carved at entrances and on walls to protect the temple and all who enter.

  3. 16th century

    Under the Vijayanagara and Nayak rulers, rearing Yali pillars line the great halls of Hampi and Madurai.

  4. Today

    The same promise, for your enterprise: the right people in, everyone else kept out.

Our Yali, in your enterprise

Same guardian. New temple.

Our logo is drawn from the temple carvings: the curled crest, the open jaw, the coiled tail. And each part of the old guardian has a job in the new one.
