Chronicle of the Buddhas
Buddhavaṁsa
The Buddhavaṁsa is a late devotional text in verse detailing the lives of 24 past Buddhas and the prediction of the awakening of the historical Buddha Gotama. This is a late text, without direct counterparts in the northern collections. It is, however, part of an extensive pan-sectarian devotional literature composed in the second and first centuries BCE, presaging the birth of the Mahāyāna.
