Anāgatavaṃsa belongs to the late period of Pāli literature. It describes Metteyya's life from his birth, awakening, preaching and nirvaṇa as a whole. According to the tradition the text was compiled by Kassapa in the late 12th century. There are some similarities between Anāgatavaṃsa, Cakkavattisīhanādasuttanta, and Buddhavaṃsa, regarding their narrative structures and sentence patterns. There are, however, some exceptions. One possible reason is that the author of Anāgatavaṃsa might have referred to other Metteyya suttas found in other languages. The variation of the extant Metteyya suttas in Sanskrit or other languages is very limited; the Chinese versions of the texts, however, exist in five different translations in the Taishō Tripiṭaka, thus become particularly important. Using the method of literature comparison, the objective of this article is to compare Anāgatavaṃsa with the five Chinese versions of Metteya suttas in order to identify their similarities. This comparison shows that there are certain similarities between Anāgatavaṃsa and the five Chinese Metteyya suttas in terms of the sentence patterns which are not observed between in the Cakkavattisīhanādasuttanta and Buddhavaṃsa. This indicates that there might be some relationships between Anāgatavaṃsa and the Chinese texts.
