During his time when he was fleeing the kingdom, Kutakanna formed an alliance with many individuals, producing an army to fight Queen Anula. He then βburned the licentious Anula in the palaceβ (Mahavamsa) on a funeral pyre after his army found her in the palace.

In the 1st century BC, the
Anuradhapura Kingdom was administered by an individual named Chora Naga, who is a progeny of Vijaya, which was known as Mahanaga. According to the Mahavamsa, Chora Naga, the son of Vattagamani Abhaya, was perceived as a dissident figure during the time by which his fatherβs

Sri Lanka was also governed by the
Kingdom of Anuradhapura, which was established around the 4th century BC until the 10th century AD. Anuradhapura was the capital of the kingdom, which was a city located in North Central Province in Sri Lanka. This capital was located approximately 127 miles north
