Arimaddana.—The name given to the Pāli chronicles to the city of Pagan in Burma (Rāmañña).¹ During the time of Parakkamabāhu I. of Ceylon, the King of Arimaddana quarrelled with him, ill-treated his envoys, and seized by force a princess sent from Ceylon to Kamboja. Parakkama sent a punitive expedition under the Damiḷādhikāri Ādicca, who reduced the country to subjection.²
