The legend says he was a Diver too, and his son while he was away subduing the Kandyan King on behalf of Vijeyabahu of Kotte, planted a pointed log beneath his diving platform, to murder him. A bee or a Bambara had settled on the point and the King noticing it, had saved the day. The rascal of a prince family was reduced to washing cloths, the family still exists and the house is where the Palace was.
