Uttara-Vihára.—Another name for the Abhayagiri-Vihara. The inhabitants of the Uttaravihàra seem to have kept a chronicle, in the same way as did the dwellers of the Maha-Vihara. This is often referred to in the Mahàvamsa Tika, as the Uttara-Vihara-Atthakathà and the Uttara-Vihàra-Mahavamsa.

(1) The commentary of the dwellers in the North Minster’— the Uttara Vihara— at Anuradhapura.
(2) The Maha-atthakatha , or simply , the Atthakatha’ of the dwellers in the ‘Great Minster’— the Mahavihara— also at- Anuradhapura.
(3) The Andha-atthakatha , handed down at Kanclpura (Conjeeveram) in South India.
(4) Mahapaccari or Great Raft, said, to be so called from its having been composed on a raft somewhere in Ceylon.
(5) The Kurunda-atthakatha so-called because it was composed at the Kuhundavelu Vihara in Ceylon.
(6) The Samkhepa-atthakatha or short commentary, which, as being mentioned together with the Andha Commentary, may possibly be also South Indian .|quote=में 74 स्थान पर line feed character (मदद) - ↑ Davids, Caroline A.
