Although an early image of Buddha was found at Dong Duong in Champā, the first epigraphic reference to Buddhism occurs in an inscription in the same place dated A.D. 875. Buddhism, though introduced at an early date, thus seems to have been confined to that locality, and does not appear to have enjoyed great popularity in Champā.
