Page "Timeline of Buddhism" Paragraph 84

* 13th century: Theravada overtakes Mahayana — previously practised alongside Hinduism — as the dominant form of Buddhism in Cambodia ; Sri Lanka is an influence in this change.

In Persia, the historian Rashid-al-Din Hamadani records some eleven Buddhist texts circulating in Arabic translation, amongst which the Sukhavati-vyuha and Karanda-vyuha Sutras are recognizable.

Portions of the Samyutta and Anguttara-Nikayas, along with parts of the Maitreya-vyakarana, are identified in this collection.
