Mukkara Hatana
The Mukkara Hatana ("The Mukkuvar War") is a 17th-century palm-leaf manuscript from Sri Lanka. Written in Sinhalese, the work celebrates the victory of the Karaiyars, also known as Karavas, over the Sri Lankan Mukkuvars, who battled for the dominance of the western coast of Sri Lanka.[1] The manuscript is now preserved in the Hugh Nevill collection at the British Museum.[2]
