Sigiriya, one of the most important kingdoms in Sri Lanka, has been criticized as a fortress built to protect itself from enemies, as a second haunt to be built like Kuvera, and as an urban complex.

It is said that Kashyapa, who had killed Dhatusena, fled to India and chose Sigiriya as his royal center for fear that his brother Mughals would fight against him. That is to say, it is clear that it was stated that King Adimuthu had taken up his abode at Sinhagiriya which was not easily accessible to the people. Sinhagiriya was later transformed into Sigiriya. The Sigiriya rock is in the form of a lion on the east side and the entrance to the upper floor of Sigiriya is through a lion 's mouth.

It is said that when King Kasyapa built the kingdom of Sigiriya, he offered the Pidurangala temple to the monks in that area and used Sigiriya as his state center. However, it is said that the monks were quarreling with King Tissa Kashyapa. It is said that the Mughal prince who killed Kashyapa did not choose Sigiriya, which was full of worldly pleasures, as his kingdom, but offered it to the monks and again chose Anuradhapura as his royal center.

Most of the Kuruthu songs written on the Sigiriya inscription wall were written around 8,9 AD. That is, it was written in the late Anuradhapura period. And the C.R.W. Sigiriya Kuruthu Gee written during the Polonnaruwa period in the 10th and 12th centuries have also been found on the mirror wall. Accordingly, Sigiriya has been a popular tourist destination during the Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa eras.

Today, Sigiriya is being explored by the Cultural Triangle. Sigiriya is one of the most important archeological sites in the cultural triangle, and Sigiriya is currently being criticized for being the eighth wonder of the world. have. Sigiriya is a fort. Like other forts in Sri Lanka, Sigiriya is protected by moat wall foundations. The Ruler's Palace is located on the upper floor of the fort. It is said that the bridge had a wooden interior which could be used only when required according to the ruins found there. A stone and brick wall was found inside it.

Sigiriya Archaeological Water Park (Symmetrical Plan), Rock Garden (Nature Plan), Malaka Park is divided into three parts. This section is called the symmetrical plan as the buildings and ponds are constructed in parallel according to a systematic plan on both sides of the road by removing the geographical obstacles such as trees and rocks.

The upper bouts featured two cutaways, for easier access to the higher frets. There is evidence that the gates were located.


Architecture


Sigiriya is more important in the study of Sri Lankan architecture. That is to say, although many archeological ruins have been found in places such as Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa, they were developed over a long period of time under a number of rulers. Due to non-acceptance, it was not developed under many rulers. Accordingly, the design of the Sri Lankan architects was more important in the study of architecture, architecture, water technology, etc. Sigiriya is central to the study of architecture. Among the ruins found at Sigiriya are secular palaces, amusement parks, water pools, etc., which are not necessary for a fort. Kara has fallen back into the pond and Ku It is unknown at this time what he meant by technology. Commonly believed to be a cold palace.


Also, the water park is very important and even today there is a water lily that comes underground during the rainy season and activates automatically.


Sigiriya paintings


The Sigiriya paintings are very important when it comes to Alakamanda. Although it is said that there were 502 paintings in 8 AD, only 22 paintings can be seen today. These paintings can be seen mainly along the western rock. A mixture of honey, humus clay and dahaiya has been used for the blade. A special feature of the Sigiriya paintings is the presence of only female figures with tops.

There are various opinions among scholars regarding the Sigiriya paintings. The first Commissioner of Archeology in Sri Lanka, Mr. HCP Bell, was of the opinion that the women of the Pidurangala temple near Sigiriya were the women of the inner city. Mr. Ananda Coomaraswamy is of the opinion that these divine beings are women as they are only present and appear to emerge from the clouds. Mr. Martin Wickramasinghe is of the opinion that it is a water game.

"We are not going to leave the king's house. They are hanging out."

Canned beef

   A French animal rights group has criticized a video of French researchers using a porthole-like cannula to access cows' stomachs.  The stomach of a cow is made up of four complex systems called the rumen (reticulum) (omasum) and (abomasum).  Doctors use this device to transfer rumin fluids from one cow to another.  The enzymes and digestive acids in cattle break down the food that is actually digested. Rhombus is the part of the body that is involved in the second process of digestion of food previously consumed.  Digestion occurs.  But why do people use a device like a porthole to enter a cattle ranch?  Scientists say that cannulaing provides direct access to a cow's stomach, improving the digestive health of millions of animals and reducing the use of antibiotics.  They also say that this is a surgery that is usually performed under general anesthesia and that they live longer than normal cows once the animal has recovered.  But ani...
