The House of Vijaya (also known as the Vijayan dynasty and sometimes referred to as the "Great Dynasty") was the first Sinhalese royal dynasty that ruled over the island of Lanka, present day Sri Lanka. According to Sinhalese folklore Prince Vijaya is the traditional first king of Sri Lanka, founding the Kingdom of Tambapanni and the dynasty subsequently founding the Kingdom of Upatissa Nuwara and finally the Anuradhapura Kingdom.〔The story of the Sinhalese, pp. 5〕 There were 37 Vijayan monarchs who reigned during a span of 609 years and ruled all but 80 of them. The dynasty ended when Vasabha of the House of Lambakanna I seized power in 66 AD.〔Nicholas and Paranavitana (1961), p. 77〕 ==Origins==
In 543 BC, prince Vijaya (543–505 BC) arrived in Sri Lanka, having been banished from his homeland in India. He eventually brought the island under his control and established himself as king. After this, his retinue established villages and colonies throughout the country. One of these was established by Anuradha, a minister of King Vijaya, on the banks of a stream called Kolon and was named Anuradhagama.〔Wijesooriya (2006), p. 20〕
