සිහසුනට පත් වීම[සංස්කරණය]
වළගම්බා රජු , සද්ධාතිස්ස රජුගේ හතර වෙනි පුතුයි. එතුමාගේ වැඩිමහල් සහෝදයන් වු තුලත්ථන , ලංජතිස්ස ( ලැමිණිතිස් ) , බල්ලාඨනාග යන රජවරුන් මෙතුමාට කලින් රාජ්යයත්වය දැරීය. .[1] A General of the army named Kammaharattaka (Maharattaka) killed Khallatanaga, the last of them and seized power. Valagamba in turn killed Kammaharattaka and took the throne himself in 103 BC.[2] He kept Mahaculika, the son of Khallatanaga, as his own son, and took Anuladevi, Mahaculika's mother, as his queen. He also had another queen named Somadevi.[1]
කැරළි හා ආක්රමණ[සංස්කරණය]
Five months after his coronation as king, a Brahmin in Rohana named Tissa rebelled against him. At the same time, an invading army from South India led by seven Tamil leaders landed in Mahatittha. Tissa and the seven Tamil leaders all sent messages to Valagamba, telling him to hand over power to them.[2] Valagamba informed the Brahmin Tissa that the kingdom will be his and told him to defeat the invading army. Accepting this, Tissa tried to fight but was defeated by the Tamils.[1]
After this the seven Tamil leaders waged war against Valagamba, and defeated him after a battle at Kolambalaka. While the king was fleeing in a chariot, a Nigantha named Giri shouted that the king was fleeing. Valagamba resolved to build a temple there, and later built the Abhayagiriya after he regained the throne.[1] When the pursuers were gaining on them, Queen Somadevi got down from the chariot to lighten it and give the king a chance to escape, and was captured.[2]
Valagamba, in hiding, organized a large army in order to attack අනුරාධපුරය and defeat the invading army. However, a rift between him and his ministers resulted in them leaving him and thus weakening the army.[2] However, the sangha brought about a reconciliation and Valagamba resumed his preparations for attacking අනුරාධපුරය.[1]
නැවත බලය ලබා ගැනීම[සංස්කරණය]
In 89 BC, Valagamba regained the throne after defeating Dathika, the last of the invading Tamil leaders, and ruled the country for twelve years until his death in 77 BC.[3] He sent for Somadevi and restored her as queen, and built a temple named Somarama in her honour.[1]
රාජ්ය පාලනය[සංස්කරණය]
The king built Abhayagiriya temple and stupa, which has a height of about 70 metres (230 ft).[4] The Abhayagiri temple became one of the three main Buddhist institutions in the country.[3] Valagamba also built several other temples. The Tripitaka, which was handed down orally in the Bikkhu order until then, was recorded on palm leaves during his reign.[5]
