Saṅghatissa.—A Lambakaṇṇa who became king of Ceylon (303-7 A.C.) after slaying Vijayakumāra. He set up a parasol on the Mahā Thūpa and did other works of merit. Having heard from the Thera Mahādeva of Dāmahālaka of the merits of giving rice-gruel, he arranged for a regular distribution of it. He used to visit Pācīnadīpaka in order to eat jambu-fruits there, and the people, annoyed by his visits, poisoned him. He was succeeded by Saṅghabodhi.¹ - [Previous: v2.c36.467](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.467) - [Next: v2.c36.469](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.469) - [Up: v2.c36](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.468](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.468) · Pramāṇa
