Kassapa (name-group: Buddha, ascetics, and rulers)

Kassapa appears in South and Southeast Asian sources as a personal name borne by distinct figures: a canonical Buddha (Kassapa / Kassapa Dasabala), a set of ascetic brothers (Uruvelā‑Kassapa, Nadi Kassapa, Gaya Kassapa) who led monastic followings, and historical rulers (e.g., Kassapa II of Anuradhapura, Kumara Kassapa of Pagan). The supplied material treats Kassapa as reused personal/name‑title across religious and secular contexts rather than a single supernatural spirit.
