Aggabodhi II was King of Anuradhapura (in modern-day Sri Lanka) in the 7th century CE. His reign lasted from 608 to 618 CE.[1][2]

He was the nephew (the son of a sister) of the previous king, Aggabodhi I, and had acted as viceroy during this king's reign.[2] Upon coming to the throne, Aggabodhi II continued the work his uncle had begun, and undertook his own projects - building and restorating of religious structures, and improving infrastructure such as irrigation.[3][4] Over the course of his rule, he constructed fourteen reservoirs (also called tanks), including Kantalai and Girithale.[5]

During his reign, the king and queen of renounced their rule, came to Sri Lanka, and took up a religious occupation, with the king of Kalinga becoming a monk.[6][7] Some sources suggest this may have been due to the actions of Chalukya king Pulakesin II (A.D.609-A.D.655) that happened in A.D.609.

After Aggabodhi II died, the throne went to by his brother Sangha Tissa II. [8][9]
