The Mahāvamsa Tīkā mentions (MT.176) two theras of this name, one a resident of the Kurundacullaka-parivena, and the other of the Kolambahālaka-parivena. They lived in the time of Bhāgineyya Dāthopatissa, and about fifty years after the secession of the Sāgalikā from the Dhammaruci-nikāya they set up a school of their own, in which they borrowed the Ubhato-vihanga from the Dhammarucikas and the Khandaka and Parivāra from the Sāgalikas.
