¹ The authorities of the Indian Museum, Calcutta, should note down in the almirah in which the Piprāhwā finds are exhibited that the iron articles were obtained in the monastery east of the stupa and not inside the stone-coffer. As exhibited at present the unwary observer will run away with the impression that the iron articles were found in the stone-coffer and therefore belong to the fifth century B.C.
