Text: "The Anointing Hall had been used for consecrating images of the Buddha and Bodhisattva with scented water according to the Mahayana traditions. The stone pavilion where the water vessels and the images were placed and the drains conveying the consecrated water out of the Mandapa are presently visible. This structure belongs to the late Anuradhapura period."
