About muggu : PRINT

Th telugu word for rangOli or kOlam is muggu. There is literary evidence for the decoration of households with muggu even in the 14th century. That is why I beg to disagree with a recent essay in American Scientit saying that these patterns originated in the 18th or the 19th century. Here is a pattern that is made of the word muggu ( ముగ్గు ). Enjoy!

Nice beetle leaves hearts! Smile
I wonder how different is the word muggulu from muggu. I had registered muggulu.com around the same time when this site was started.

muggulu is the plural of muggu as kOlams is the plural of kOlam.

the Telugu script itself is very cute one and when used in forming a muggu?) it is more beautiful.( How about others also try like this in their mother tonguel
