The Amravati stupa was discovered much before the Sanchi stupa. At that time, the scholars and
British officers did not realise how important it was to preserve things at their original places. Many
slabs from the stupa at Amravati were taken to the Asiatic Society of Bengal, Kolkata, to the India
Office, Chennai, and some even to London. When the Sanchi stupa was discovered, three of its four
gateways were still intact. The recommendable work done by the begums of Bhopal helped in
preserving the Sanchi stupa. They provided money for the preservation of the monument and
sponsored the volumes written on the stupa by John Marshall. Their active work helped in the
preservation of the Sanchi stupa.
