  • Mayūra-parivena

A building attached to the Mahāvihāra and built by King Buddhadāsa.

Two villages, Samana and Golapānu, were given for its maintenance (Cv.xxxvii.172; also Cv. Trs.i.16, n.2.).

The building was twenty five cubits high; Dhātusena removed it and replaced it by a building twenty one cubits high (Cv.xxxviii.52).

It was restored by Mahānāga (Cv.xli.100), while Dāthopatissa II. gave to it the village of Kesagāma (Cv.xlv.28). v.l. Moraparivena.
