Ellawala Medhananda Thera-Buddha Born India+ Mahawansa

Ellawala Medhananda Thera
 
I do not take responsibility for the assignment made by this Thero.

According to Ellawala Medhananda Thera there is no historical evidence to say Buddha was born in Ceylon. However, he states that the Emperor Asoka had identified the place of birth of Buddha in India and had  erected a stone pillars with inscription to validate such facts.
There is no reproduction, of the stone pillars with the scripture.
According  to him, here are some guys in CEYLON who are propagating false impressions to say Buddha was born in Ceylon for publicity and perhaps for making money on YouTube.
Do not believe those bogus stories is his advice.
Medhananda Thero is a world recognized archeologist. 
Do not inundate the Thero with queries. He is old and recovering from a recent illness. Instead, read the books written by this Thero.
 
However, I do not believe his statement that round Sinhala words originated directly from Bahamian alphbatet.  Those letters are somewhat like matches laid down on a surface with a few letters having rounded shape in the bottom.
 
It is more than likely Sinhala letter originated from Pali  and Pali itself descended  from India, perhaps with Indian coming to Ceylon with Mahinda Thero.

I have written a book on Prehistory of Ceylon which goes back to 100,000 years along with three levels of planes in Ceylon relate to meteorite hit dating back to millions of year. I also postulated that Ceylon was a much bigger Island perhaps a Continent that 95% of it went under or destroyed by the meteorite impacts.
Eventually, it got juxtapositioned against India and ill fitting with Indian contour.
 
Subsequent calcium deposits erased the original contours.
