Ashes of Buddha Found Near Peshawar in 2,400 Year Old Relic
A bronze casket containing Buddha’s ashes and a crystal reliquary has been unearthed by Indian archaeologists under a historic pagoda near Peshawar. The relics, authenticated as genuine, were presented to Burmese Buddhist priests in Calcutta with plans for a Mandalay shrine. The find is tied to King Kanishka era inscriptions and marks a moment of revival for Buddhism across Asia with extensive notes on Buddhist sites from Japan to Burma and India.
