  • Tambapupphiya

A thera. Ninety-one kappas ago he had fled into the forest, having committed some crime.

There he saw the Bodhi-tree of the Buddha Piyadassī, and having swept the ground around it, he scattered flowers.

Three kappas ago he was a king named Samphusita (Ap.i.176).

He is probably identical with Vanavaccha Theta. ThagA.i.222f.
