  • Ceylon and the Portuguese, 1505-1658
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES CEYLON AND THE PORTUGUESE 1505 - 1658 BY P, E. PIERIS, LITT. D. (Otutab) Ceylon Civil Service, i,6tXfiTXD B7 a. B. NAISri. B. X. (Oioa.) Ceylon Civil Service. AMtMICAN CEYLON MISSION ^RCSS. TELLIPPALAI. CtYLON 1920 DS 1^41 <i^ DEDICATION Dear Lady Blake, I have written this book in the hope that it will awaken in those of your fellow country- men and fellow countrywomen whose hands it may chance to reach, an interest in Ceylon and a desire to understand her people. In that respect you and Sir Henry have set a shining example, and in grate- ful recognition I venture respectfully to dedicate this work to you» Yours sincerely, Kandy, 3rd June. 1920. P» E. PIERIS, "Son of nmn, stand upon thy feet." PREFACE The period of the history cf Ceylon which is covered by the present work has been already dealt with by me in another book which, inasmuch as it was addressed primarily to the people of that country, assumed in the reader a degres of knowledge which no one who has not resided there for many years can have, and was hurdemed with a minuteness of detail which, however novel and interesting to the local student, cannot but weary, if not repel, the general reader„ And yet the story of the Portuguese in Ceylon is of more than local interest, for it depicts for us a characteristic phase of the beginning of European expansion in the East. A hundred and fifty three years after the Portuguese first landed in Ceylon they were expelled from the country, leaving the gloomy word Failure writ large over all their actions.

  • King Vijaya (B.C
    King Vijaya (B.C. 543-504) and his successors (Source: A SHORT HISTORY OF LANKA by Humphry William Codrington) The traditional first king of Lanka is Vijaya. His grandmother, Suppadevi, according to the legend was the daughter of the king of Vanga (Bengal) by a princess of Kalinga (Orissa). She ran away from home and in the country of Lala or Lada, the modern Gujarat, mated with a lion (sinha); hence the names of her children and ultimately that of Sinhala, the designation of Lanka and of the Sinhala. At the age of sixteen her son Sinhabahu carried off his mother and his twin sister to the haunts of men; the lion in his search for his family ravaged the country, and for the sake of the reward offered by the king of Vanga was slain by his own son. The king dying at the time, Sinhabahu was elected as his successor, but abandoned Vanga and built the city of Sinhapura in his native country Lada. His son Prince Vijaya and his boon companions committed such outrages in his father's capital that the king was compelled by popular clamour to drive them forth. They set sail and, touching at Supparaka, a famous port on the west coast of India (Sopara, north of Bombay), ultimately arrived at Tambapanni. Vijaya is made to land at Tambapanni on the very day of Buddha's death. Here they found the country inhabited by Yakkhas or demons, and one of them Kuveni, entrapped Vijaya's followers, but was compelled by the prince to release them.
