During the reign of King Parakramabahu II (1236–70), Dambadeniya reached the zenith of its glory. King Parakramabahu II's immaculate Poetic masterpieces "Kavisilumina" and "Visuddi Marga Sannasa" gave a turning point to Sinhalese literature. Dambadeniya era was the reason why Sinhalese literature is not limited to paintings nor scripts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dambadeniya

The first king to choose Dambadeniya as his capital was Vijayabahu III. He was able to bring about unity amongst the Sangha that had fled in various directions due to the hostile activities of the invader Kalinga Magha and succeeded in holding a Buddhist convention in 1226 to bring about peace amongst the Buddhist clergy.
King Parakramabahu II as eldest son, was the king who inherited the throne after his father King Vijayabahu III.

He was known as Panditha Parakrama on account of his great learning ("pundit")http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=pundit.) http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lkawgw/gen3000.html

Unifying the three kingdoms that existed within Sri Lanka at that point of time is regarded as his greatest achievement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Dambadeniya
