Ancient Instance of Buddhism in Bangladesh (Tours & Travels)

A semi damaged black basalt pillar discovered in Joypurhat District of Bangladesh. It's inscription in ancient language that matches the inscription on the pillar in Delhi, erected in the 3rd century BCE by the third Indian Emperor, Ashoka, to mark palaces where the Buddha taught. This adds to the firm instance of these deltaic lands as the “Cradle of Buddhism”.
