The ruins at the site belong to the 12th century when it was known by Parakramapura. • Even though the temple is one of the most important features of the ancient city, the highlight is the ruins of a round-shaped tower situated inside the circular moat. Ruins of this tower-like building called ‘chakkrawalaya’ built by King Parakkramabahu the great who reigned in the 12th century is entangled in the history of King Panduvasudev. • The circular area or ruins are believed to be that of the high tower, though archaeological excavations haven’t established the identity and purpose of same. The wall with a width of 21 feet at the base was built of clay that has a diameter of 297 feet. Within the tower was a series of concentric circles of clay walls. Within the innermost wall was a square chamber. • It is believed the tower featured several storeys during this historical era. • However, archaeological evidence suggests Panduwasnuwara isn’t ancient Upatissagama, where King Panduwasdev reigned. However, the popular belief is that Panduwasnuwara was the location where Princess Unmada Chithchtra was kept in a high tower away from the eyes of the men. According to prophesy, a son born to her would kill all his uncles in battle and become the ruler of Sri Lanka. In spite of her imprisonment in the high tower called “Ek Tam Ge”, the prophesy realized. Her son, sired by Prince Diga Gamini, smuggled away from the tower at birth, survived and fulfilled the prophesy by becoming King Pandukahabya of Lanka. • Facebook - SR Creations (https://www.facebook.com/SR-Creations...) • Email - [email protected]
