They are the only Pali Theravada works represented in the Kangyur.

There are thirteen late translated sutras (Tib. གསར་འགྱུར།, Wyl. gsar 'gyur) in the Kangyur usually grouped after the General Sutra section which are called ‘newly translated’ (གསར་དུ་འགྱུར་བ་, gsar du ‘gyur ba), also called “the group of thirteen sutras” (མདོ་ཚན་བཅུ་སུམ་པོ་, mdo tshan bcu sum po), and were translated in the first decade of the 14th century at the monastery of Tharpaling (not far from Zhalu in Central Tibet), by a translator from Ceylon, Anandashri, and the Tibetan translator Tharpa Lotsawa Nyima Gyaltsen Palzangpo, who was one of Butön's teachers.

They are the last group of sutras ever to enter the sutra section of the Kangyur. The thirteen sutras all have closely matching equivalents in the Pali Canon, and it is almost certain that they were translated from Pali, and are Theravada texts, i.e. from the literature of the Theravada school. They are the only Pali Theravada works represented in the Kangyur.
