| Abstract | In 1877, a large stone coffer was recovered from Brahmapuri, Maharashtra, India. It bears a
short donative record in Brāhmī letters and is evidence for the presence of Buddhism at an early
period in the southernmost tip of Maharashtra. The chest is now kept at the Chhatrapati Shivaji
Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya, Mumbai. The inscription is one of the earliest written records of
Maharashtra and the coffer is a rare example of a well-preserved stone relic chest. |
