== History ==<br />
<br />
The town gets its name "Mudukuthore" from the river Cauvery as it gets a turn and flows forward. ''Muduku'' means 'diversion' and ''thore'' means 'flow forward'.<br />
<br />
The town is home to the Lord Mallikarjuna temple. In Hindu mythology, during Mahabharatha period, Arjuna, one of the Pandavas stayed at the hill where this temple is located and carved an idol of Shiva and did pooja with "Mallika pushpa" (a kind of flower), giving rise to the title 'Mallikarjuna' for Shiva.<br />
<br />
Sri T Bettahalli Marikambha Temple popularly known as Bettahalli Maramma Temple is a six hundred-year-old temple site. In 2004, thieves demolished its central Idol, requiring the temple to later be rebuilt.<br />
