Mahinda.—Son of Moggalāna and Lokitā and brother of Kitti (afterwards Vijayabāhu I.).¹ 18. Mahinda.—Son of Vikkamabāhu II. and brother of Gajabāhu. He fought against Deva, general of Parakkama-bāhu I., at Hedillakhaṇḍagāma, but was defeated, and fled to Billagāma. From there he went to Vallitittha, and was again defeated. Later he joined Māṇābharaṇa, and was sent by him to Moravāpi, thence to Anurādhapura, where he defeated Mahālekha-Rakkha and Bhaṇḍārapotthaki, who marched against him. From Anurādhapura, Mahinda proceeded to Kālavāpi where, for three months, he fought against Bhaṇḍārapotthakī Bhūta, and was finally defeated by him.
