Stalapuraanam says that Siva on seeing Brahma with five faces, became jealous and plucked one face of Brahma and this amounted to Brahma hatyaa dosham. The kapaalam got stuck to the fingers of Siva. While wandering, Siva came to Kadamba kshetram. Perumal asked Thaayaar to give some alms to Siva. By her grace, kapaalam got filled up. Thus Siva was able to atone for the dosham he committed and the kapaalam got out of his hands. Siva continued to stay here as Bikshandar and hence this place is called as Bikshandar Koil also.
