Avataphaliya Thera

1. Avataphaliya Thera.– An Arahant. In a previous birth, ninety-four world-cycles ago, he gave an avata (tāla?) fruit to the Pacceka Buddha Sataraṃsī (Ap.ii.409). He is probably identical with Sambula Kaccāyana. ThagA.i.314.

2. Avataphaliya Thera.– His story is similar to that of (1) except that the name of the Pacceka Buddha seems to have been Sahassaraṃsī (or is this an epithet?) (Ap.ii.445). He is probably to be identified with Melajina Thera. ThagA.i.252.
