Description:
The name Dulapalli is derived from the Tamil word 'dulapalli' meaning 'a small hill'. The name may have originated from the hilltop village that once stood on the site of present-day Dulapalli. The village may have been named after the small hill on which it was situated. Alternatively, the village may have been named after the Dulapalli tree, which was a common tree in the area. The village may have been founded by traders or merchants who travelled through the area. The villagers may have been Tamil speakers who settled in the area. The village may have been abandoned or destroyed in the 17th century due to the Chola invasions. The village may have been re-founded in the late 19th century. The village may have been renamed Dulapalli after the re-founded village.
