Book excerpt: This little book does not profess to contain anything strikingly original: its aim is to introduce the traveller and the antiquarian (and the two are frequently synonymous) to rarely trodden and most fascinating ground; to the beautiful remains of an architecture and a civilization of 2,000 years ago, the greater part of which are easily accessible: and to make a humble attempt at awakening, if possible, a greater interest in a part of Ceylon which is only just arising from the slumber and neglect of many centuries.

This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... very much mutilated; and beyond this, on the same side (at the mile-post) is a square " Mantragala" stone with nine square holes in its upper surface at regular intervals. It is impossible at present to pronounce authoritatively as to the actual use and meaning of these curious stones. Formerly they were called "Yogi" stones, and were supposed to have been used by ascetics for purposes of mystic devotion and second sight.

To the south-east of this stone, an enormous "pokuna"is visible, which is known as the Elephants' Bathing Tank.f Nearly opposite, on the left-hand side of the road, See Mr. Bell's Seventh Report to Government, Appendix A, t There is a tendency in local tradition to presume that everything particularly large was intended for and used by elephants--a hypothesis not supported by investigation. is a beautiful stone canopy, restored in 1886.
