Sūkarabhātu.—An officer of Mānābharaṇa. He was captured and put in chains by Parakkamabāhu I. He escaped, however, and the Adhikārī Mañju was sent to seize him. Sūkarabhātu became the commander-inchief of the rebels and caused great damage to Parakkamabāhu’s forces. It was not until Damiḷādhikārī and Laṅkāpura Deva concentrated all their attention on him that he could be defeated. He died fighting, near Mahānāgahula.¹
