Sinhala is one of the oldest languages in the world. This vibrant language has a long history. After the arrival of Mahinda thero in the third century B.C Buddhist monks were in forefront in the development of Education in ancient Sri Lanka. Pali sutras and texts were used in education widely. Therefore prose writing of Sinhala began with glossaries and translations as an education requirement. Polonnaruwa period was a new era of Sinhala literature. After that Sinhala literary works flourished during Dambadeniya period in the13th century. However the golden age of Sinhala literature was Kotte period. Among those Sinhala literary works Sandesha kavyya or the messenger poems are exceptional.
