What in the world is this?[edit]

Where did the names in brackets come from?

Mavil Aru (Mavil Oya)
Muttur (Mooduthara)
Sampur (Somapura)

I'm a Sri Lankan and I have never even heard these names being used for these locations in any news report, map or anything. Please clarify. Chamal ^talk 13:55, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
