The Ruined Cities of Ceylon is a historical and archaeological account of the ancient cities of Sri Lanka, written by Henry William Cave and first published in 1904. The book provides a detailed exploration of the ruins of Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa, Sigiriya, and other important sites, along with their cultural and historical significance. The author discusses the architecture, art, and religious practices of these cities, as well as their decline and abandonment. Cave draws on his own experiences as an archaeologist and historian, as well as on the work of other scholars and explorers, to provide a comprehensive and engaging account of these fascinating places. The book is illustrated with photographs and drawings, and includes maps and plans of the sites. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Sri Lanka, as well as for students and scholars of archaeology and anthropology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
