Great Kingdom of Sigiriya The history of Sigiriya is a compelling narrative that revolves around a significant rivalry. The rock fortress of Sigiriya has its origins in a conflict between two brothers, King Kashyapa and King Mogallana. This immense rock edifice, Sigiriya, was painstakingly constructed by King Kashyapa as a bastion of protection against his brother's ambitions.
King Kashyapa's ascent to power was marked by force, as he seized the throne that was rightfully held by King Mogallana. Fearing his brother's eventual return to reclaim the throne, King Kashyapa commissioned the construction of the Sigiriya rock fortress. His objective was to create an impenetrable stronghold, impervious to any potential invasion orchestrated by King Mogallana.
The name "Sigiriya" alludes to a site of profound historical and archaeological significance, characterized by the towering rock column that soars nearly 200 meters high. The technology employed in the fort's creation is a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. However, the rivalry between the two brothers culminated in King Mogallana's triumphant defeat of King Kashyapa, leading to the eventual destruction of the rock fortress.
