KUSALANA KANDA, Ru-gama (Cave at)

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

Through the kindness of my friend Mr. F. Lewis of the Forest Department in Ceylon, I am able to add a recently found inscription cut at a cave at Kusalana-kanda [note 1], near Ru-gama [note 2], in the Eastern Province. It was discovered and copied by his Forest Ranger … a facsimile [Fig. No. 151], and a transliteration and tentative translation [note 3] of it as it stands in the hand-copy sent to me (PARKER 1909: 445).Through the kindness of my friend Mr. F.
