History
Although early history is unknown, it is known that this place was ruled by "polygars" (pah-leh-gara) (petty chieftains) until a new system of governance was introduced after English entry into Mysore. Masthi had a significant Brahmin population in mid 1900s but not many remain to this day. Masthi Venkatesha Iyengar, a Kannada writer, is from Masthi.

gollark: Apparently the designers of this laptop were going for "kind of user-servicable but not really", so does anyone have any idea how I can replace this HDD? I couldn't find anything on YouTube and the manufacturer seems to be missing repair manuals.
gollark: Anyone know how to scroll the server list up and down in the web version of Discord on a laptop?
gollark: There's an AWS Glacier deep archive tier now, which is cheaper, I think.
gollark: I only have maybe 20GB of data I actually care about, but because it's mixed in with all the stuff I don't and because I'm lazy I have basically no backups. One day I'll fix that. One day.
