The Taishō edition attributes both of these texts to translators that were active before the Ekottarika-āgama was translated. Though the identification of these two translators remains doubtful, nevertheless, these instances suggest that texts may have been incorporated in the translation of the Ekottarika-āgama that did not form part of the Indic original of this collection...” Referring to Lévi, Les seize Arhat protecteurs de la Loi,” Journal Asiatique, ser.
