AbstractThis article explores the history of clandestine activities concerning Buddhist antiquities in the former Khyber Agency of the British Indian Empire. To this end, the archives kept at the Directorate of Archives and Libraries at Peshawar prove that Gandhāran sculptures recovered during these clandestine excavations were transported to England in violation of the law in force. In addition, some sculptures belonging to senior officers have disappeared and are to this day unknown. This article envisions and considers some of these facts and therefore focuses particularly on the discovery, hasty excavation, and devastation of Buddhist ruins near the great stupa called Shpola which was part of the Khyber Agency under the British Kingdom.Keywords: Pursuance of antiquitiesBuddhist remainsKhyber AgencyBritish period AcknowledgementsThe author expresses gratitude to the Director of the Directorate of Archives and Library, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Peshawar for permission to study the archival record preserved therein the record section.

AbstractThis paper looks at two memorials built in India to commemorate Sikh victims of the violent events of June 1984 and November 1984. Gurdwara Yaadgaar Shaheedan (Gurdwara Martyrs’ Memorial) was built in the Golden Temple complex, Amritsar in 2013, and the Wall of Truth: Sikh Genocide Memorial was inaugurated in Gurdwara Rakabganj, New Delhi in 2017. While both memorials commemorate related events and are built by the same group of people, they differ completely in the choice of nomenclature, design and even the justification given for their creation. This paper discusses the differences between these memorials and their relevance in the memorial politics of contemporary India.Keywords: Sikhmuseummemorial1984Operation Bluestarmemorials for atrocitiesHolocaust AcknowledgementI am grateful to Manjit Singh GK for discussing his work with me. I also thank the anonymous reviewers for their detailed comments on the paper.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. From the word, panth, for the Sikh community.2. This alliance broke in the year 2020 in the context of the historic Farmers’ Protests led by the farmers of Punjab, against the BJP-led Central Government’s introduction of three farm laws.3. For this paper, I consider museums and memorials together, keeping in mind the commemorative function of museums. In the Sikh case, museums are often both sites for acquiring knowledge of the past and also to remember a particular aspect of Sikh history. For example, the information panel at the Bhai Mati Das Museum in Gurdwara Sisganj, Delhi informs the visitor that it is built on the ‘land enriched by the blood of martyrs’ and the museum is for the younger generations to remember these sacrifices.4.

Singh, Understanding Sikh, p. 36.7. It should be noted that the two Partition Museums mentioned here are not ‘Sikh’ projects. Their sponsorship is not exclusively Sikh nor is their thematic focus on the Sikh community alone. Along with the Virasat-e Khalsa, they are the first examples and the only recent examples of museumization of the Partition, an event which is extremely significant in the history of South Asia.8. The Golden Temple is also referred to by other names such as the Darbar Sahib and the Harmandir Sahib.9. Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale (1947–84) was the head of the Damdami Taksal (a radical Sikh seminary), and

Gurdwara Yaadgaar Shaheedan (Gurdwara Martyrs’ Memorial) was built in the Golden Temple complex, Amritsar in 2013, and the Wall of Truth: Sikh Genocide Memorial was inaugurated in Gurdwara Rakabganj, New Delhi in 2017. While both memorials commemorate related events and are built by the same group of people, they differ completely in the choice of nomenclature, design and even the justification given for their creation. This paper discusses the differences between these memorials and their relevance in the memorial politics of contemporary India.Keywords: Sikhmuseummemorial1984Operation Bluestarmemorials for atrocitiesHolocaust AcknowledgementI am grateful to Manjit Singh GK for discussing his work with me.

From the word, panth, for the Sikh community.2. This alliance broke in the year 2020 in the context of the historic Farmers’ Protests led by the farmers of Punjab, against the BJP-led Central Government’s introduction of three farm laws.3. For this paper, I consider museums and memorials together, keeping in mind the commemorative function of museums. In the Sikh case, museums are often both sites for acquiring knowledge of the past and also to remember a particular aspect of Sikh history. For example, the information panel at the Bhai Mati Das Museum in Gurdwara Sisganj, Delhi informs the visitor that it is built on the ‘land enriched by the blood of martyrs’ and the museum is for the younger generations to remember these sacrifices.4.

Their sponsorship is not exclusively Sikh nor is their thematic focus on the Sikh community alone. Along with the Virasat-e Khalsa, they are the first examples and the only recent examples of museumization of the Partition, an event which is extremely significant in the history of South Asia.8.
