520			_aTerritory has always been a focal point of ethnic contestations and identity formation in Sri Lanka. Both Sinhala and Tamil nationalists have used claims of primordial and ethnically determined territories to validate their personal rights. The notion of primordial homeland has been used as a theatre of violence, production of identity, protective space for the Buddhist order and even as a politicaleconomic reward by the two sides. Both groups have also expressed the need to safeguard themselves against their opponent—marking the other as a communal majoritarian government or terrorist group. While this identity–territory linkage has been interrogated by many scholars and academics, travel literature in the context of conflict relations in Sri Lanka is a relatively understudied subject. – Reproduced
