Thambatti is a hatti in the Mekku Nadu seeme. It carries no Mel/Kil prefix, no ooru or kore marker and no recorded alternate spelling — the name stands on its own, which is the ordinary case for a long-established hatti.

It is listed 76th of the 81 hattis the reference carries under Mekku Nadu — the reference is alphabetical within a seeme, so that is the page it would be on in print. A name carrying no structural marker is usually an older settlement, one that predates the subdivisions the other names record.

Is your family from a different Thambatti?

The reference carries this name more than once. Those are separate villages with separate ooru positions — the source flags the overlap rather than resolving it, so it is worth checking which one is yours.

Hattis with a similar name

Villages named from the same stem are often related by migration or by a shared ancestor, which makes them a plausible place for a family connection to have come from.

Where this information comes from

The hatti list is compiled from the “Badaga Hattis by Seeme” master list, itself drawn from Nakku Betta magazine (late 1970s, ed. K.H. Madha Gowder) by Wg Cdr Bellie Jayaprakash, with community corrections layered on. Entries are still being validated with elders in the community, so a spelling or a seeme may yet be corrected. If you know this hatti better than this page does, we would rather hear from you.
