Valmiki Ramayana Clearly explains that RAVANA LANKA used to be 1213 kms in length and 363.9 kms width. Maldives once stood as a high mountain, before getting submerged in the Indian Ocean. But the present-day Lanka is about 20 miles off the Indian coast at its nearest point.

[BogalaSawundiris]

The Sri Lanka of today was called Singhal as mentioned in Mahabharat. That is the original name of the Sri Lanka you see today. The Singhal nation in Mahabharat fought on the Kaurava side, and that is why there is a caste called Karava in Sri Lanka.

[aadarshdubey]

i would rather say that sri lanka was a part of ravan's lanka, which could be a bigger island or a group of island, a part of which got sunk. because otherwise it would not match with current placement of rameshwaram temple, and the fact that the distance covered by lord hanuman was 100 yojan. which is he distance between India and srilanka coast.

[HiranCooray]

Last thousand years 😂SL history has now has over 120000 years history quote

Evidence of human colonization in Sri Lanka appears at the site of Balangoda. Balangoda Man arrived on the island about 125, 000 years ago and has been identified as Mesolithic hunter-gatherers who lived in caves. Several of these caves, including the well-known Batadombalena and the Fa Hien Cave, have yielded many artifacts from these people, who are currently the first known inhabitants of the island.

I’m the Srilankan, SriLanka has sita hide place called sita elliya.
And hanuman takes himalaya parts of including medicine Ayurvedic plants
In SriLanka has Rumassala island same as himalya Ayurvedic plant includes. So srilanka ancient story explains that island is hanuman takes part of it.

Sir, Pampa is referred in Valmiki Ramayana. Actually Pampa River is in Kerala and there is also a place Rameshwaram in Kerala. Can you throw some light on this...

[gkcjakie]

During Tsunami back in 2004, ocean water withdraw from shore 1 to 2 km back. During that time people saw temple like ruins off of south beaches of Sri lanka.

[coolfreaks]

All the relatives of Ravan died in battle, except Vibhishan. Vibhishan lived like a Vaishnava.
The present day population of Sri Lanka has 3 major race:
1. The indegenous inhabitants of Lanka ( The children of Vibhishan ).
2. Buddhist preachers who migrated to Sri Lanka from Odisha or Bengal.
3. The Tamil people who migrated to Sri Lanka during the Chola period.

[manindramohankar]

If East of Maldives, then the present day Sri Lanka may also be part of Ravana's Lanka.

[champiekanayaka]

I'm sri lanken, so as a sri lanken we have our own story of ravana same as you all having you believes

[laxmihallikeri]

What about the Rameshwaram temple location? It is said Ram Ji made the shivling before crossing the setu that was built. And it’s right near the Ram setu that’s there today?

[sandipansiromoni]

Right it's Kumari kandam submerged Island 200 yojana from ujjain

[safeness]

According to Ramayana distance between India and Ravanlanka is 1280 kms..

Your question 1
Who built Sigiriya Ravana or Kashyapa?

Answer from Google 😎
Kashyapa is credited with the construction of the Sigiriya citadel and the surrounding city😊 🚩jai maharishi kashyap 🚩

[rangarajannarasimhan]

If ram sethu is not the one near rameswaram, then where ram worshiped shiv before crossing for Lanka? Makes no sense that he worshipped shivji at rameswaram and walk all the way to kanyakumari and build a sethu for 100s of kilometers in open sea. I don't think so. If current Sri lanka was refered as sinhala dweep and not Lanka, may be it was close to Srilanka as an island. May be a tiny island which is now submerged.

[sirajsriranjan]

Ceylon is the name that the British gave

1 minute silence for those who thought srilanka as ravan's lanka..

[srirambalakrishnan]

This hypothesis can be totally wrong. If Srilanka is not actual ravan's lanka, it will defeat the several myths and legenda surrounding the temple nomenclature in Tamil Nadu. For example, the 'Ramar paadham - Rama's foot' in Kodikkarai, TN - Intitally Ram thought, this is the best place to cross to Srilanka, before going to Dhanush Koti. The several temples near rameshwaram - which talks about Ram's legend. All will go for a toss, if Srilanka is actually not Ravana's lanka. Even from a geological point of view, the presence of Coral reefs and floating rocks will further defeat the argument.

[debanjanchatterjee]

Ravaans lanka is Sri Lanka that is no doubt but Maldives was also a part of raavans kingdom it can happen where Ravaan frequently visits and established many things. But it can happen Raavan born in Maldives and then settle in lanka . He did not separate it from his kingdom and it might be his financial capital. These things can happen. But lanka war happened in Sri Lanka.
