  • Sugalā

Younger daughter of Viravamma.

Her mother was the daughter of Vijayabāhu I.

She married Sirivallabha and had two children, Mānābharana and Līlāvatī . After the death of Mānābharana, Sugalā revolted against Parakkamabāhu I. On finding her position untenable, she retired to Uruvelā with the Tooth Relic and Alms Bowl, which had fallen into her hands. She then carried on her activities in Atthasahassaka.

She was captured at Vanagāma and sent to the king. After that we hear no more of her. Cv.lix.28, 45; lxii.2; lxxiv.28, 36, 88; lxxv.154f., 171, 195.
