Been there recently?

What is “Veddha” community ?

Veddha also often spelled as Vedda, in simple terms are Sri Lanka’s Aboriginals – that island’s inhabitants prior to the 6th Century BCE. They are the minority indigenous community. At the moment, just around 2,000 Veddhas remain, maybe as few as two hundred of whom still live their ancient lifestyle; the island’s oldest human civilization is fading away, with far too many Veddhas relegated to putting on a show for interested tourists.

Mahiyanganaya, Dambana is the infamous habitat of the Veddha community in Sri Lanka. Its significant in many ways even for fellow locals as it feels like a walk back to centuries like time travel.
