In pre‑colonial Sri Lanka, the amma was the primary custodian of oral literature. While monks preserved religious doctrine, women kept alive the secular world—folk tales ( katha ), proverbs ( paribhasa ), lullabies ( thiyala ), and riddles ( poth ). These narratives were often conveyed during daily chores: while grinding rice, fetching water, or braiding hair. The mother’s voice, therefore, became synonymous with the rhythm of everyday life and the transmission of cultural values.
