The Indian Museum, founded by Nathaniel Wallich in 1814, is located in Serampore, near Kolkata. Occuping a mansion, the museum features an Egyptian mummy, the Buddhist stupa from Bharhut, the Buddha's ashes, the Ashoka pillar, fossil skeletons of prehistoric, and a collection of meteorites. It also houses antiques, armour, and ormanents.

A nice image of the Indian Museum, located near Kolkata. The image also has a high encyclopedic value. Comments are welcome! Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 21:37, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
