The Dipavamsa: An Ancient Buddhist Historical Record is a book written by Hermann Oldenberg. It is a translation and analysis of the Dipavamsa, an ancient Buddhist text that provides a historical account of the early Buddhist community in Sri Lanka. The book includes a detailed introduction that discusses the history and significance of the Dipavamsa, as well as a translation of the text itself. Oldenberg's analysis of the Dipavamsa provides insights into the early development of Buddhism in Sri Lanka, including the establishment of the Buddhist sangha and the spread of Buddhism throughout the region. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of Buddhist history and anyone interested in the early history of Buddhism in Sri Lanka.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
