History

Sanchi and surrounding stupas

There are in all four groups of stupas surrounding Sanchi within a radius of twenty kilometers: Bhojpur and Andher in the southeast, Sunari to the southwest, and Satdhara to the west.[4] Further south, about 100 km away, is Saru Maru.

All these stupas were searched by Major Cunningham, who most of the time took the relics found in the center of the stupas to England. He donated them to the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum.[5]
