About Pulasthi Statue
The statue near the Potgul Vihara at Polonnaruva has been considered as an excellent work of art. However, the identification of the statue has hitherto been ambiguous though it has been attempted to identify either as a king or a sage by various scholars with different perspectives. The traditional belief is that the statue is a depiction of the king Parakramabahu the Great who ruled the Island from the Polonnaruva kingdom.
