Kāranūru is the name of a locality possibly corresponding to the modern Kāriganūru, as mentioned in the “Sankalapura inscription of Krishnaraya ” (1513 A.D.). This slab inscription records that Kṛṣṇarāya of Vijayanagara (A.D. 1510-1529) granted the village of Saṅkalāpura to a temple of Gaṇapati, which was called Kōṭa-Vināyaka. The village Saṅkalāpura was situated on the south of Kāranūru. The Hospet Taluk Map indicates that Kāriganūru possibly corresponds to the Kāranūru of the inscription.
