| The victorious warriors of Polonnaruwa kept their flag flying. They took the Tooth Relic and brought it to Polonnaruwa, with due veneration. King Parakramabahu had organized a number of religious festivals for the occasion. Later, a separate palace (Maligawa) was built to house the Tooth Relic. Thereafter, people paid veneration to the Tooth Relic, day in and day out. The people of Ruhuna who opposed the king, also began to take a liking to Parakramabahu. All of them accepted him as the sovereign ruler of the land. |
