| India has successfully repatriated more than 300 ancient gemstones known as the Piprahwa Gems—believed to have been buried alongside the cremated remains of Lord Buddha in the Mauryan-era stupa of Piprahwa. Scheduled for auction at Sotheby’s in Hong Kong, the sale was halted after India’s Ministry of Culture issued a legal notice, citing violations of national and international heritage laws. |
