This book is a southern Thai text that describes the Buddhist scriptures as they were traditionally transmitted in palm-leaf manuscripts kept in temple libraries. Different versions are known. This volume has published, transcribed for the first time in Roman characters, the Pali text of a Tamra Traipitaka. This specific version is contained in a manuscript found in Wat Photharam, Chaiya, Suratthani Province: the text is written in Khom script and divided into four sections. The Preface, Introduction, and Index are in English and Thai.
