'''Anathode Dam''' is a flanking dam of masonry [[Gravity dam|gravity]] type situated in [[Seethathodu|Sethathode panchayath]] of Seethathode village in [[Pathanamthitta district]] of [[Kerala]], India. This dam is constructed on Anathode river which is a tributary of [[Pamba River|Pamba river]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=Kerala State|first=Electricity Board Ltd.|date=|title=Emergency Action Plan (Tier- I) Pamba, Anathode & Kakki Dams|url=https://www.kseb.in/index.php?option=com_jdownloads&task=download.send&id=14001&m=0|url-status=live}}</ref><br />

Anathode is a stream which joins Kakki river downstream of [[Kakki dam]] before the confluence with [[Pamba River|Pamba river]]. The dam makes a common reservoir with Kakki. The spillway for the reservoir complex is located by the side of Anathode Flanking Dam. The reservoirs formed by the two dams are connected through the natural valley.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Pathanamthitta|title=DM PLANS|url=https://pathanamthitta.nic.in/dm-plans|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210726104429/https://pathanamthitta.nic.in/dm-plans/ |archive-date=2021-07-26 }}</ref> Kakki & Anathode dams are about 4 kilometers apart by road.
