Dating from around the beginning of the Christian era, the scrolls are probably the oldest Buddhist manuscripts ever discovered. Also included are representative samples of texts and translations. This discovery sheds new light on the regional character of early Indian Buddhist traditions, the process of the formation of standardized written canons, and the transmission of Buddhism into central and east Asia.
