In Kerala there are many Kavus.. or semi jungle abodes for the Divine mothers and demi gods.. and deities like Ayyappan, and the snake..nagadevata.. In Tamilnadu, and even in our place Palakkad where a lot of Tamil cuture is followed, there are many Ganesh Idols and Nagaraj idols, stationed under peepul trees.. And some deities like brahma rakshas are consecrated only under amla trees.. they have no temples as such..
The neem tree is a celebrated abode for Mariamman, a Goddess who is in charge of epidemics.
