Only a few remnants of the ancient Uighur Vinaya literature have survived. The incomplete
state of the two fragments presented here does not allow any firm statements to be made about a
specific textual affiliation, but the textual preservation clearly points to an affiliation with Vinaya
literature. The aim of this first publication is, on the one hand, to make other Old Uighur Vinaya text
fragments known and, on the other hand, to stimulate discussion of the content.
