Yakku (A Tribe of the 4 Hela tribes.)

[kosandpol]

very true..
but hela people were too called as "lion people සිංහ මිනිසුන්/ suryawanshika සූර්ය වංශික" in some ancient script found in some other countries

The story that lions are connected to sinhala ppl by mean of "sinhabahu"..is a fiction which is far from reality...

Wijaya and his blood line is supposed to trace back to the Suryawanshika people and Sinhabahu. Since main stream history says SL people comes from Wijaya and his lot, Sinhala with the meaning "Sinha Le" or Blood of Lion stems from that.
Which one is the correct depends on which version of history is followed.

There might be generations who come from the 700 friends of Vijaya but not himself. The only children Vijaya had were Jeewahaththa & Disala (from Kuweni) Historey says Vijaya's queen did not have childern. Basically there's no blood line that started form a lion. According to this Vijaya's generation is really the native Sri Lankans (Waddas). Cause mahawansha says that Jeewahaththa & Disala are the forefathers of Waddas

The blood line that starts from Sinhabahu is Wijeya's blood line. Sinhabahu is a forefather of Wijaya.
The Waddas are not considered the native Sri Lankans since Kuweni and her tribe was already here when Wijeya arrived. The true natives are the Yaksha's (Kuweni's people), the Nagas and the other 2 tribes (I forgot the names).

Yes... Yakka, Naga, Dhewa & Raksha (Asura). I know that, yet explained it this way so everyone can understand. (most people doesn't consider them as our forefathers.) Sinhabahu & Sinhaseewali are the parents of Wijaya and forefathers of Waddas. We on the other hand, as I beleive carry the native blood since 700 people is not enough to create a nation during such a short period of time that Mahawansha tells.

Sorry... That's another myth by Mahawansha.

Vijaya exterminated many of the yaksha, nagha, rakus, asura tribes after marrying to Kuweni by force.

Some yaksha people have escaped into the jungles and mixed with another tribe called 'pulindas'.

That's how wedda tribe started.

Yes, there is a possibility of the names of the 2 main characters were Jeewahaththa & Deesala.

But Weddas aren't descendents of Wijaya.
Weddas are the real Yaksha tribe people.

Unfortunately after Thisahami and his son uruwarilaye wanniyala-aththo, we can't find a wedda with real Yaksha blood. Most of them have been mixed with several other communities including rodee, kinnara, sinhala, tamil etc.

Again a correction

Asura (~dewa). Not raaksha...

Actually it's not Raaksha. it should be Rakus.

Rak + Kus = in sinhala.... kusa (bada) rakka kattiya. = Goviyo.

also as I've told earlier, Yaksha tribe is the forefather and mother of Weddas. Not Wijaya the thief

Furthermore, Sinhala = Siwu hela = Yaksha, Naaga, Rakus, Asura (4 tribes).
So no connection with Wijaya at all.

As senath ekanayaka quoted, Wijaya was the 1st invader. That's all about him

Ya I have made a mistake in naming 4 tribes, sorry.
So... according to this, everythig is crystal clear... that Indians are not our forefathers. All they have done is creating a fairy tale to hide our true identity. I wish everyone understands this.

Well... I don't agree with that either.

We simply can't reject the fact that Wijaya came here and did some good things (albeit doing bad stuff mostly).

Also, again I don't have any evidence or a clear idea about before Ravana era. Maybe Ravana have had an Indian connection - who knows

So we can't blame any party as to creating a fairy tale etc. because since this is history, every story does look like a fairy tale

It's just a matter of 'giving credit where its due' sorta thing...

Out of curiosity... what about battle between Rama Rawana.... It says Rama came for his wife Seetha, but for some reason I cannot believe Rama invated Lankapura only because of his wife who was sent to woods (thapo wanaya) afterwards.

Some says it was a plan between Rama & Wibheeshana. So Rama can have Indian kingdom ruled by Yakkas & Whibheeshana gets Lankapura. Wish I had some more information about this.

zz ......... As I've heared Ravana did have connections with India. It says Yakkas did have a kingdom in India. Dhandaka Aranya (where Rama, Seetha & Lakshman dewlt) was also a part of Ravana's Indian Kingdom. I've heared that they hurt Suparnakha because she was against hunting & disturbing hela people who lived there.

I've heared few different stories... I'm posting all here in order to get a clear idea.
