Since the end of the 19th century and the beginn ing of the 20th centur y, a great number of the ancient Uighur Buddhist texts were found from Dunhuang and the Chinese Turkestan, namely ancient Western Region, such as Turpan, Kucha, Hami and other places. These important materials have attracted scholars from G ermany, France, China, Russia, England, Japan, Turkey, USA and Finland, etc.. Th e paper gives a short survey of editions and studies of the Buddhist texts of th e Uighurs during the 20th century. These Uighur Buddhist texts can generally be classified into four traditional lines, i.e. Indian, Central Asian, Chinese, and Tibetan. A separate section is given to the poetical works, and finally the que stion is discussed to which extent it is possible to speak of original Buddhist works.
