Delft Island fort

Delft Island Fort (also known as Neduntheevu fort and "Meekaman / Meegaaman fort"; Tamil: நெடுந்தீவுக் கோட்டை; Sinhalese: ඩෙල්ෆ් බලකොටුව) was built by the Portuguese on the island of Neduntheevu in the Palk Straight in northern Sri Lanka. Later, it was taken over by Dutch, who built a barrack nearby. The island known to the Portuguese as Ilha das Vacas, was renamed by the Dutch as Delft Island.^[2]
