Sultan Bathery

Sultan Bathery is a town in the mountainous Wayanad region of Kerala, South India. It takes its name from the ancient Bathery Jain Temple on the edge of town, which was used as an ammunition battery by Tipu Sultan's army in the 1700s. In the Ambukuthi Hills to the southwest, Neolithic carvings are preserved on the walls of Edakkal Caves. Close by, Wayanad Heritage Museum displays archaeological and tribal artifacts.
