Seethangoli is a small village located 11 km north of Kasaragod town and 12 km south of Uppala in Kasaragod District, Kerala.

History

The village of Seethangoli is in the shape of a finger ring. According to local traditions, when the Sri Lankan demon Ravana abducted the Indian goddess Sitadevi, a ring fell down from her hand and became a village in that shape. So it is called 'Seethangoli' or Seeth's 'Anguli' or ring.
