Abstract: | Let f n be the non-parametric kernel density estimator of directional data based on a kernel function K and a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables taking values in d-dimensional unit sphere S d−1. It is proved that if the kernel function is a function with bounded variation and the density function f of the random variables is continuous, then large deviation principle and moderate deviation principle for $
left{ {sup _{x in S^{d - 1} } |f_n (x) - E(f_n (x))|,n geqslant 1} right}
$
left{ {sup _{x in S^{d - 1} } |f_n (x) - E(f_n (x))|,n geqslant 1} right}
