King of Kālinga.
At first he did not pay honour to the Tooth-relic of the Buddha which was in
his capital, but later, having seen a miracle, he became a Buddhist and paid the
relic all homage.
Later, he sent the relic to Ceylon,
through his daughter Hemamālā and her husband
Dantakumāra. The whole story is
given in the Dāthāvamsa (chap.iv.ff).
