MORDULAMNE

MORDULAMNE (Μορδουλάμνη, Ptol. 7.4.5), a port on the eastern coast of Taprobane (Ceylon). The name is probably a corruption of the MSS., and ought to be Μόρδου λιμήν, or Μόρδουλα λιμήν. It is, perhaps, represented by the present Kattregam, where there are still extensive ruins. (Ritter, Erdkunde, vi. p. 22; Davy, Account of Ceylon, p. 420.)
