The Batticaloa Fort ((シンハラ語:මඩකලපුව බලකොටුව); (タミル語:மட்டக்களப்புக் கோட்டை)) was built by the Portuguese in 1628 and was captured by the Dutch on 18 May 1638.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Archeological remains in Batticaloa: The Dutch and the Portuguese in East. )〕 Later, the fort was used by British from 1745. The fort has a structure of four bastions and is protected by the Batticaloa Lagoon on two sides and a canal on the other two sides. The fort is still in reasonable condition and currently houses several local administrative departments of the Sri Lanka government in new buildings, which are located within the old structure.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Batticaloa Fort )〕 == Timeline == Timeline of Batticaloa fort in colonial time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The "Dutch fort" - Batticaloa )〕 * 1622 – Construction began by Portuguese * 1628 – Construction completed * 1638 – Dutch captured * 1639 – Fort destroyed by Dutch * 1665 – Reconstruction started * 1682 – Renovation * 1707 – Front bastion and complex completed * 1766 – Ceded to Kandyan kingdom * 1796 – Captured by British 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Batticaloa fort」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
