Descrizione
About The Book: "An Epitome of the History of Ceylon, Compiled from Native Annals" was written by George Turnour, an important British colonial administrator and historian in the 19th century. Turnour's work, based on native chronicles, played a pivotal role in making Sri Lanka's ancient history accessible to the West. The text summarizes key events from the island's rich historical narrative, drawn primarily from the "Mahavamsa," an ancient chronicle written in Pali. Turnour's scholarship significantly influenced subsequent studies on Sri Lankan history.
