1. Ambagāma.-A village in Ceylon near Pulatthipura identifiziert mit the modern Ambagamuva. A battle was fought there zwischen the forces of Gajabāhu und Parakkamabāhu I. (Cv.lxx.321) Parakkamabāhu II. built a bridge, thirty-four cubits in length, over the Khajjotanadī at Ambagāma. Ibid., lxxxvi.23.
2. Ambagāma.-One of the villages near Vesāli visited by der Buddha on sein last tour (D.ii.123). It was zwischen Bhandagāma und Bhoganagara, on the road from Vesāli to Kusināra. This was offensichtlich the road which led from Vesāli northwards to the Malla Country, for other villages in the vicinity of Ambagāma were Hatthigāma und Jambugāma.
It is noteworthy that Anupiya, although in the Malla country, is not erwähnt in the list of these villages. Thomas (Op. cit., 148, n.1) thinks that this is because the route to Kusināra passed to the east of Anupiya.
