This temple consists of natural dens, caves, as well as recently built shrines and buildings. The history of this temple traces back to the time of B.C.According to the legendary accounts, there had been ten giants in king Dutugemunu's troops. Giant Pussadeva was one of them whose duty was to inform the king's battle victories to the subjects, by blowing a conch shell. Also his symbol was the conch shell itself.Later on he had built this great sacred place and become a Buddhist monk there. Having won the Vijithapura war this area had been offered to Pussadeva by king Dutugemunu, for taking the priority in the war. According to legends, the conch shell he used at Vijithapura war has been entombed in a rock called Hakgedi Gala (Conch shell rock) which is situated on the top of the mountain. As a result this temple has been named Sankapala temple. (Temple of conch shell) Caring out excavations Archaeological departments of Sri Lanka has discovered many ruins with historical value such as dens with inscriptions, stone pillars and shrines from the temple premises.
The name Pussadeva engraved on the walls of certain dense is an obvious evidence to prove that he lived there. In the past this land where had been a prosperous area was under gone enemy invasions and left an isolated thicket in the middle of the jungle.According to the priests in the temple, having been destroyed the temple by certain treasure hunters called Mukkaru , the great statue of lord Buddha, which was 27 feet in height had been dragged on and put into the near by river (Rakwana river).

Pothgul Vehera | පොත්ගුල් වෙහෙර
This is located some distance from the statue and thought to be a Buddhist library complex and a place where the Buddhist writings were studied and resided. The original name of this Aramaic complex is not known.
This brick building is built on 4 stages. On the 3rd stage there are 9 buildings which are thought to be places where the priests lived. On the very top floor there is a circular building with a dome shaped roof.
The roof is no more in the building. But on the walls it is still possible to see the fragments of paintings which have survived under the forces of nature for over 800 years.
