They did however construct some forts inland, primarily to defend the coastal lowland areas from attacks by the Kingdom of Kandy. Katuwana fort was built approximately from Matara, in the Kandyan foothills at the northern limits of the Dutch East India Company's territory. The fort was located on the slope of a hill, with high ramparts, a single gateway and a walkway on top. It was diagonal in shape, with two bastions, which each accommodated six cannon,〔 as a result it was often described as a redoubt rather than a fort. In 1761 during the 'Matara Rebellion' the fort was captured by Kirti Sri Rajasinha's Kandyan forces and partly destroyed.〔 Following the anexure of the Kandy Kingdom by the British in 1815 the fort lost its strategic value and was abandoned. == References == 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「Katuwana fort」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
