Jaffna Archaeological Museum

TIME : 2016/2/17 16:09:26

This unkempt but interesting museum is hidden away at the end of a messy garden behind a concrete events hall. At the door are a rusty pair of Dutch cannons from the fort and a set of whale bones. Inside, the most interesting items are some 15th-century Buddha torsos found at Kantarodai and a 14th-century ‘seven-mouthed pot.’
