A mountain, slightly over two yojanas to the south-east of Anurádhapura. At the foot was a bamboo-grove in which grew three bamboo-stems, each being a waggon-pole in girth - known as latáyatthi, kusumayatthi and sakunayatthi - because of Devánampiyatissa's good fortune (Mhv.xi.10; Dpv.xi.15, 19; Sp.i.74. For an explanation of these yatthis see IHQ.vi.571ff). Saddhátissa afterwards built a vihára there, called the Chátavihára (MT.300). The Anguttara Commentary (i.15) has a reference to a novice dwelling in Chátapabbata who came to grief after hearing a woman's voice.
