I dont know the time of Mahishi and Bashmasura ,but People down south believes that Lord Ayyapan Purna Avator of Darma Sastha ,born during the Kaliyuga ,They also calling him Kaliyuga Vardha (one who offer boons in kaliyuga )...Lord Ayyapa is the adopted son of KIng Rajasekhara of Pandalam dynasty (covering half Tamilland and Kerla in its Map).
There are three reasons for his birth
1 To kill Mahishi (prime one )
2. During Rama Avator LOrd Ram blessed Saint Sabari that in Kaliyuga one of his form will reside in the same mountain, she lived and accept her name as his .SO now Ayyapa is believed to be half Vishnu and HAlf Shiv and called as HARI HARA SUDAN (composite form of VIshnu and SHiv)and SabarimalaiSwami (Swami of SabariMountain).
3.King Rajasekhara the great devotee of LOrd Shiv in his previous birth prayed for a child like LOrd shiv ,so there is no option left for SHiv granted the boon that Darma sastha (one of the form of shiv ) ,will reach him as his son in his next birth .
Yes Lord Barasuram Placed the old Idol with its chakra ,but unfortunately it was molested by Communist people of Kerla ,Later the devotes joined hand from Tamilnadu and Kerla and placed the GOlden Idol instead of old one is what now seen in the temple .
BUt the Chakra placed by Barasu Ram have all the powers which is attracting several millions people every day .
Kerla is called as GOD's own country because Lord BarasuRam during his last days ,put this land under change and built several temples with its famous chakra 's . Ex- BHagavathi amman ,GUruvayur ,SabariMAlai etc .SInce LOrd Barasu Ram is the sole cause for making this land suitable for living and worshiping, He is GOd father for these people's and thus the land is called as God's Own land .
According to "MAnikanda puran" LOrd Vishnu tricked Bashmasura by his Mohini Avator and challenged him for a dance competition later this leads to Bashmasura's death . Lord shiv got attracted towards Mohini and they lived happily for a period of divine one year at the banks of River Pambha ,Mohini delivered the boy child ,lord shiv came out the maya ,that he is attached so much to mohini , and forgot even parvati for a long time ,hence Shiv and VIshnu in their respective forms left the child with a MAni (bead), around his neck .
Another proof for Kaliyug arrival is ,Lord Ayyapan defeated a Muslim rober named Babar ,who later became a devotee of LOrd Ayyapan .In his remembrance there is Mosque in the way of Sabarimalai temple, that people pay respect to him till now .
