There is still ongoing research to establish who exactly founded the math and when exactly it was founded. As per historic lore it is said that it was initiated by Shri Raghuthama Theertharu (Bhavabodharu) of Uttaradi Matha. Shri Raghuttama Tirtha (also known as Raghuttama Yati) (Śrī Raghūttama Tīrtha, (c. 1537 - c. 1596) was a Hindu philosopher, dialectician, scholar, theologian and saint. Born in a aristocratic Deshastha Brahmin family, he was brought up in mutt under the direction of Raghuvarya Tirtha. HIs Brindavan or the final resting place in Tirukoilur, Tamil nadu attracts followers from wide afar. It is also said that this matha was formed after it split away from Palimar at Udupi initiated by Shimad Ananda Theertharu (Madhvacharya). The first pontiff of the matha was Narayanatirtha. Shri Narayana Theertharu was a great scholar of the Dvaita order and earned the name "Shri Paada Wodayaru", for which he is still known today. The math became well known as Jivottama Matha after the third pontiff, Jivottama Tirthar. The deity worshiped by the institution is Shri Veera MoolaRama devaru and Shri Veeravittala devaru During the late 1950s, Shri Dwarakanatha Theertharu established several educational institutions and republished several seminal works. This math was also a victim of Portuguese Christian missionary activities that drove the original establishment from Madgao to Bhatkal in Karnataka and Karwar District in Karnataka. (en)
