It is said that when Uddāyana, taking pajjoya as prisoner, returned to Vībhaya, his army, including the ten kings, was held up by rains, and halted in the middle of the journey where the ten kings, fearing an attack, built mud walls around them for safety. Later on, this place was occupied by some merchants and since then this place came to be known as Dasapura.¹⁹⁹
