Some have claimed direct descent from the Creator himself; others from the Sun or the Moon.

A son and a daughter were born to them&#8230;When the son, named Sinha-bahu, grew up and learnt from his mother that he had a king for a grandfather, he determined to get away from the wild, primitive life they were leading, and to rescue his mother and sister from a hopeless form of existence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000000;\">&#8220;So, one day, while Sinha was out hunting, Sinha-bahu took his mother and sister&#8230; and made his way back to his grandfather\u2019s capital&#8230;Sinha, returning to find an empty home, was both heartbroken and furious&#8230; as the days passed without his being able to find them, he get maddened and attacked whomsoever crossed his path&#8230; the king proclaimed by beat of drum that whosoever should kill Sinha would be well rewarded&#8230; Sinha-bahu&#8230; aimed an arrow from a distance of only a few paces at his unsuspecting father and killed him on the spot\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000000;\">&#8220;Sinha-bahu&#8230; succeeded to the throne of his grandfather&#8230; His son was Vijaya&#8230; Sinha-bahu&#8230; was forced to banish Vijaya.
