Load Buddha after his enlightenment (Around 528 BC), two brother merchants call "Thapassu Ballula" offered the dana (alms giving). After the Dana, they requested something to worship and received "Sacred Kesha Datu"(lock of hair relic). Those merchants used to travel different parts in the region and came to Sri Lanka also. One day they stayed in this area and kept this relic pot on top of a rock and went to the village area for the business. On their arrival they found that the pot cannot be moved and determined to build a pagoda enshrining the hair relic. Now this is call Girihadu Seya.
