Sankapala, Sri Lanka.

King Dutugemunu reigned in the period 167 to 137 BC. He had ten 'Maha Yodayas' - giant warriors. One of them donated land to the Buddhist Sangha. The area within the hearing distance of a 'conch-shell trumpet' - 'Sankha' S, 'Sangu' T, was thus handed over. Temple paintings in the temple of 'Sankhapala' on the Pelmadulla - Embilipitiya road commemorates this event which happened 2000 years ago.
