Abstract
Only a few remnants of the ancient Uyghur 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 Uyghur Vinaya text fragments known and, on the other hand, to stimulate discussion of the content.
