v2.c29.197

Bahumaṅgala-cetiya.—A shrine in Anurādhapura in the image-house of which Dhātusena erected Bodhisatta figures. He also provided a diadem of rays for the Buddha images in the cetiya. These images were known as Kālaselasatthā and Upasumbha.¹ The cetiya is probably identical with the Maṅgala-cetiya (q.v.).
