Yes, Ezhavathy or Purohithan or Kavutheeya or Komaram are Bengali brahmin came through Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
Their ancestors did yagna in Kerala and also they were traditional ayurveda teachers and priests in many temples.They brought 'Sakthi' worship in Kerala.They are Chaturvedi brahmin. Most of the male were known as 'Manthrikan' or 'Mantrikan'(those who expert in Manthram and 'Tantra' with divine power).
