Kandian Regalia

     
     
Ruby of enormous size "6in by 1in" This part does leed me to wonder if wht is representaed as the Kings Crown in National Musuem is a fake!! This is an amazing description of a Suit of Armour belonging to the king. Its of Solid gold with gems to bare. Remember, the king was no small man. He was 6ft4 and large in build!!
   
  Details of the carriage of the King, made of Gold and Silver.  

 

   
  The sketch of the meeting held by the chieftains and O'Doly. O'Doly was in fact a double agent, where he brainwash the king into believing all was against and at the same time agitating the chieftains. The British tactic!!  

These details plus more can be found at the British Library and also in the book "Tri Sinhala" by P.E.Pieris.
