India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Ceylon Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society 1963Angamadilla-ala, idenified with Ākāsagaṅgā, is the name of an ancient canal that existed in the Polonnaruva (Polonnaruwa) district of Ceylon (Sri Lanka).—The Sinhalese Chronicles say that Mahāsena dammed the Kāra-Gaṅgā and brought the water to Miṇṇeriya tank along the Talavatu canal. The Kāra-Gaṅgā is mentioned in the Pali Chronicles much later: Parakkamabāhu I (1153-1186) dammed it and conveyed water along the Ākāsa-Gaṅgā (present Aṅgamadilla-ala) to Parakkamasamudda at Polonnaruva.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
