Ambaṅganaṭṭhāna

The spot where Devānampiyatissa gave a mango to Mahinda.

The elder ate the mango and had the stone planted in the ground. Immediately a tree grew from it and the earth trembled. The elder declared that the spot would become a place of assembly for the Saṅgha of Sri Lanka and would be called Ambaṅgana. Sp.i.101.
