Uttiya (Sinhala: උත්තිය, ) was an early monarch of Sri Lanka of the Kingdom of Anuradhapura, based at the ancient capital of Anuradhapura from 267 BC to 257 BC. As Devanampiya Tissa had no son, his brother Uttiya succeeded to the throne. The death of Arahat Mahinda, who had brought Theravāda Buddhism to Sri Lanka occurred in king Uttiya's reign period. The king held a grand funeral, and built a chetiya where Arahat Mahinda was cremated. Theri Sangamitta also died during the reign of King Uttiya, the funeral was held in a similar grand manner and a stupa was also built on the spot where Sangamitta was cremated.
