Summary

Description2nd century Buddhist site, Kodavali Andhra Pradesh - 33.jpg	English: Kodavali is a small remote village in East Godavari district, about 20 kilometers north of Pithapuram. And about 35 kilometers north of Kakinada. On a hill there is the——Kodavali archaeological site that is predominantly Buddhist. Kodavali is one among many Buddhist sites along the rivers and "coastal parts of Andhra Pradesh region." These were competing schools of Buddhism that emerged in the "centuries after Asoka's violent conquest of Kalinga in Odisha and northeast Andhra region." There is a a major stupa and a vihara complex in Kodavali. The Kodavali site is notable for its four ancient wells near the stupa and vihara. On the upper walls of one of these wells is a Brahmi inscription that states Chandasati – a Hindu king – gave gifts——to the Buddhist monastery and constructed water wells for the monks. Chandasati's gift is dated——to the late 2nd century. Other than helping epigraphical studies and evolution of Brahmi script in India, this inscription helps establish that the Kodavali site was built before. Or in the 2nd century CE.
