Jogulamba temple is regarded as a Shakti Peetha where Sati Devi's upper teeth fell. The mythology of Daksha yagna and Sati's self-immolation is the origin story of Shakti Peethas. The original temple was reportedly built in the seventh century CE. Bahmani Sultans grounded it in 1390 CE. Vijayanagara Emperor Harihara Raya II was said to have sent his army to fight the Bahamani Sultan's army and fortified the temple complex to stop further attacks. It was said that the main idol was shifted to the nearby Bala Brahma temple in the Navabrahma temple complex. Since then, the idol had been worshipped in a secluded place in the Bala Brahma temple. Jogulamba temple was rebuilt at its former location in 2005, and the original idol was installed in the new temple.
