# Reliquary

A reliquary is a container for holy relics. This one is designed as an independent small-scale monument. It is one of the most complete replica models of the classic Gandharan monumental stupa (dome-shaped shrine), none of which have survived in a complete state.

- **Kind:** artefact
- **Date:** 200–400 CE
