This book ‘Ramayana & Historical Rawana’ is a valiant attempt to capture such new findings and bring in historicity to our legends aimed at the general public. This effort of Mr. Kiriella is indeed salutary and hopefully will lead to a lively debate and help untangle many webs woven around the pre- historical myths that have been passed down from generation to generation. As the author skillfully navigates from ancient legends to historical sites and dwells on Brahmi scripts, Rock inscriptions and Asura Empire, you will surely find it a rich source of many challenging views that may appear contrary to what you have hitherto believed. That would then serve the purpose of the author well indeed!! “

“This is the finest unbiased piece of writing for the public on a series of controversial pre historical incidents. It’s well written and well timed to meet the most recent developments on pre historical thinking. A much needed, well balanced but still scientifically argued to latest research and debates pertaining to pre history. Ramayana & Historical Rawana can be recommended as one of the most informative books now available and will trod a long way debating and correcting many public misconceptions of Ramayana and Rawana.
