v2.c27.891
In the twelfth year of his reign, Parakkama goes to war with the king of Rāmañña, disputes having arisen about the elephant trade and the treatment of the Sinhalese ambassadors, the crowning offence being the seizing of a princess who was being sent from Ceylon to Kamboja. A fleet is collected at Pallavavaṅka, and the soldiers are landed at the port of Kusumī, with the Nagaragiri Kitti at their head, a further attack being made by the Damiḷādhikarin Ādicca at Papphālama. After five months the Rāmañña king is slain and peace again restored.
