Konduwattuwana Wewa
Konduwattuwana Wewa or Kondawattuwana Wewa is an ancient reservoir located in Ampara, Sri Lanka. The reservoir lies on the Ampara – Inginiyagala main road, approximately away from the town of Ampara. The site with ancient Buddhist ruins belonging to the Konduwattuwana reservoir area is formally recognised as an archaeological site in Sri Lanka.
The reservoir, Kondawattuwana Wewa, was constructed between the 1st and 3rd centuries BCE, most likely under the patronage of King Vasabha. According to a stone pillar inscription found near the reservoir, the irrigation water of this reservoir was taxed, along with the paddy fields during the reign of King Dappula IV. It also records certain immunities granted by the king in respect of a village named Äragama
The reservoir was renovated in 1912 to supply both irrigation and drinking water to nearby villages.
