The British Auction House postponed the auction of the Ministry of Culture, which was hiding with the ashes of the Buddha after the protest of the Ministry of Culture. About it reports Guardian.
Sotheby’s would organize an auction on May 7. The jewel, which is planned to sell, was hiding in the cult structure (Stupa) with the burned ruins of the Buddha in the Piprahi village in the north of India.
The Indian Ministry of Culture demanded that such an auction would be unethical and to cancel the tenders of Sotheby in a legal declaration and to return the residue to the country. They demanded to consider the jewels in India as part of the “sacred body of Buddha”.
The auction house plans to discuss the possibility of bidding with the relevant parties.
In total, approximately 1.8 thousand works have been included in the “Piprakhva Jews” with valuable and semi -carbon stones, pearls, gold and silver objects and various jewels. During the excavations in 1898, they were discovered by British landowner William Clariston Peppe.
