==History==<br />
Historically, the region encompassing Killiyoor taluk was an integral part of the larger Vilavancode taluk. Vilavancode taluk itself has a rich history, having been a significant administrative division within the erstwhile [[Travancore]] Kingdom and subsequently the Travancore-Cochin State. In 1956, with the [[States Reorganisation Act]], Vilavancode, along with Thovalai, Kalkulam, and [[Agastheeswaram taluk|Agastheeswaram]] Taluks of the then [[Thiruvananthapuram district|Thiruvananthapuram District]], were transferred from Travancore-Cochin State to the then [[Madras State]] (later renamed as Tamil Nadu) to form the Kanyakumari District.<br />
