India history and geography
Source: archive.org: Ceylon Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society 1963Kavuḍulla or Kavuḍullavava is the name of an ancient locality that existed in the Polonnaruva (Polonnaruwa) district of Ceylon (Sri Lanka).—[... also see Tissavaḍḍhamānaka...] Codrington has correctly equated Tissavaḍḍhamānaka tank with Rantisā tank, the present, breached Kavuḍulla-vava, 6 miles north of Miṇṇeriya. The Rantisā sub-district was the area around Kavuḍulla and Madigiriya: it was part of a larger division known as Bidervatukuliya (Bijervatu-kuli in the Sīgiri Graffiti) which extended over the greater part of the northern half of Siṅhala Pattuva. [...] The Mahāvaṃsa states that the Ālisāra canal (present Alihara canal) was in existence in the reign of Vasabha (67-111), two centuries before Mahāsena, and that shares in it were assigned to Mucela-vihāra which was near the present Kavuḍulla tank: therefore the Ālisāra canal must have existed before the Miṇṇeriya and Kavuḍulla tanks were built.
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.
