The Great Shrine of Amaravati flourished for almost 1,000 years, but fell into ruins and by the 18th century was a stone quarry for buildings in the Andhra Pradesh region. In the 19th century it was extensively excavated, and surviving carvings removed. The British Museum has more than 120 carvings from the site, which is the largest collection outside India. The later carving shows the domed stupa guarded by stone lions, at the heart of what was a huge shrine. Founded in the second century BC, it included a mountain of stone with a facade 120 metres long. https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/5047e76dbe11935212e999d98618b 10973dff344/9_119_2266_2832/master/2266.jpg?w=620&q=55&auto= format&usm=12&fit=max&s=3eb7693cdf1b6901e2ebffe79ee3ff13 https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2017/aug/08/british-muse um-first-to-showcase-interactive-display-with-wifi-link#img- 1 |
