Abstract

The collection of Buddhist legends entitled Daśakarmapathāvadānamālā (DKPAM) is best preserved

in Old Uyghur. According to the colophons of this Old Uyghur version, it was translated from

Tocharian. In this paper, two Tocharian B fragments that are parallel to the Supāraga-Avadāna of

the Old Uyghur DKPAM are presented, together with a third Tocharian B fragment that may belong to the same avadāna, but is so far lacking a parallel in Old Uyghur.
