Kuruvita Batadomba Lena Cave
Monstrous stone of Batadombalena cavern, a home of 'Balangoda Man', a bunch of banana trees in the forefront of the cavern
Having visited the Batatotalena cavern sanctuary (highlighted in the Sunday Observer a week ago), my following visit was to close Batadombalena, home of the 'Balangoda Man' named Homo sapiens balangodensis (Balangoda Manawaya) as he is famously known. It is found four kilometers from the Kuruwita town in the town of Waladura which can be reached by going on the very course that takes you to the Batatotalena cavern sanctuary.
It is more exhausting than the brief move to the Batatotalena cavern sanctuary and it is important to travel a kilometer and half through the rainforest, along a lofty wilderness track that is frequently just a muddled stone or limited stream bed. It takes you to the Batadombalena cavern after a chaotic climb – I nearly neglected to specify the bloodsuckers that clung onto the lower part of the legs. The pathway prompting the highest point twists through a little elastic ranch, at that point a tea domain and a vigorous totally mature wilderness, to shake patches with no help railings lastly, to the memorable Batadombalena cavern.
The Batadombalena cavern has a place with the stone-age, an ever-enduring, immortal period called ancient times, the time before the beginning of history. The Balangoda Man is accepted to have lived all over the place. In any case, the most extravagant proof is found in caverns. It is really at that time that the stone-age starts to come to fruition in the paleologist's brain. Later on, they dispatched unearthings to discover the signs about early men who had lived in caverns, for example, the Fa Hsien cavern close to Bulathsinhala, Beli-lena cavern close to Kitulgala and Batadombalena collapse Kuruwita.
Albeit the stone-age is lost to us, at Batadombalena it is conceivable to get a feeling of the past. A piece of the encompassing zones of the Batadombalena has been proclaimed an archeological save. It is a climate which has not changed for a very long time. The thick evergreen foliage is fixed in by transcending trees and the air is sodden and moist.
Despite the fact that it is totally still, it is additionally loaded with sounds, the twittering of crickets, the call of birds and the mumble of running water. This was the world wherein the ancient man lived.
