The history of the family at Jamboor dates back to 1896, when Sri Shankarnarayna Adiga, head priest at Jamboor Mahalingeshwara Temple, moved to Jamboor from Laxmi Narisimha Temple, Girke Matha, near Kota, the original mula sthana of the Adiga family.
Architecturally, the construction of the house has been done using local materials ranging from laterite, mud, and lime for plastering and wood for ceiling, columns, and roofing components. Presently the Jamboor Mane is functional and is used by the family. The house has still preserved the original Hebbagilu and Jagali, this opens into a large courtyard followed by the Chavadi and Padasale, a study room, Ugrana, various storage areas, an indoor and outdoor kitchen preceding a smaller inner courtyard, a sleeping quarters on the first floor, washroom and utility areas and a cowshed around another smaller courtyard located on the rear end of the Padasale.
A special thank you to the Jamboor Mane family.
