His reign lasted from 341 to 370.[1] He succeeded his father Jettha Tissa II as King of Anuradhapura and was later succeeded by his son Upatissa I in 370. He pioneered in building many hospitals in the country. Sources describe Buddhadasa as a "Mind of Virtue and an Ocean of Gems."[2] and he is known for his medical knowledge.[3][4]
