Galambatittha untranslated

Galambatittha. A village in Ceylon, which contained a vihāra and a Thūpa. King Vasabha repaired the Thūpa, built an uposatha-house, and endowed land for the maintenance of lamps in the house (Mhv.xxxv.85). The village is probably identical with that mentioned elsewhere as Galambatitthagāma (Cv.lxxv.7). In that case, it was in Rohaṇa and was the scene of a battle in the campaign of Parakkamabāhu I.

The Commentaries (e.g., Snp­a.i.57; Vibh­a.353) contain references to a group of fifty monks dwelling in Galambatitthavihāra, who took a vow never to address each other until they attained Arahant-ship.

See s.v. Kalambatittha.
