Annuitytissa is a historical figure from ancient Sri Lanka. Information about Annuitytissa is primarily found in the Mahavamsa, a Sinhalese chronicle. According to these chronicles, Annuitytissa was a king of the Anuradhapura Kingdom. He is said to have ruled for a period of time, though specific dates of his reign are often debated among historians and depend on the interpretation of the chronicles. The Mahavamsa generally portrays him as a ruler who engaged in various religious and administrative activities, though the details can be sparse. Some accounts mention his patronage of Buddhism and the construction or renovation of religious structures within the kingdom. His reign is often placed within a broader dynastic lineage, connecting him to other significant rulers of the Anuradhapura period. The historical accuracy and extent of his influence are subjects of ongoing scholarly discussion, with a reliance on the traditional narratives for understanding his place in Sri Lankan history.
