Yes grt are you aware of the ancient HIndu shirne of Kathirgammam. This is where Lord Murugan( or Karthik/Hirthik to North Indians) met and wooed the Veddah girl Valli and married her. Thi sis the reason many Tamil males are called Kathirgamer ( which means Murugan/Karthik or Hirthik). This was a pure Tamil area adjoining the Tamil Eastern province. Traditionally this was a Tamil area and puja in this Temple ws conducted by the Tamil Brahmin priests. Now the entire Tamil population has been chesed off and thisplace is now renamed Kataragamma in Sinhala. Hug Buddhist Viharas and temple complexes have been built in this area and this ancient prehistoric Murugan temple is dwarfed. Now only the Sinhala Buddhist kapuraalas are allowed to perform pujas in this ancient HIndu place of worship. The Sinhala Buddhist are claiming many ancient Hindu places of worship as theirs. They are suported by thoer politicians. This is to destroy the ancient Tamil Hindu history in the NOrth and East. Especiaaly in the East as it has falled to them. The Sinhalas are now treating the Tamil East as conquered land to be colinise by the Sinhalses and the Tamil Hindus to be made a permanent minorty. The Tami lMuslims are supporting this SInhala move. Their latest claim is the ancient Siva Temple of Thirukonneswaram in Trincomalee. This temple is of Ramayana fame. The Duth and Protuguese detroyed it and it was rebuilt by the Tamils.
