English: Captions: Early South Indian Coins (re-drawn and restored from Elliot, Coins of Southern India Plate I, fig. 38: Kurumbar or Pallava coin of the Coromandel coast; showing a two-masted ship like the modern coasting vessel or d'honi. and Plate II, fig. 45: Andhra coin, showing a two-masted ship presenting details like those of the Gujarāti ship at Boroboedor, and the Persian ship at Ajanta. Post note: The ship of Borobudur is markedly different from the Andhra coin ship, it is also not a Gujarati ship—The outrigger and type of sail (canted rectangular sail or Tanja sail) are distinct features of Austronesian ships. The notion that the Borobudur ship was Gujarati can no longer be upheld, it is based on an 1800s folk story about the coming of Indian culture to Java, recent studies determined that the Indianization of Southeast Asia is seen as more of a collaborative process brought about by trade and local elites choosing to adopt ideas from India with the assistance of Brahmin scholars. The Andhra coins came from 1st century CE according to Deloche, alternatively 2nd or 3rd century CE according to Philippe Beaujard. See Deloche,J.,1996, “Iconographic evidence on the development of boat and ship structures in India (2nd C. BC – 15th C. AD): a new approach,” in H. P. Ray and J.-F. Salles (eds.), Tradition and Archaeology. Early maritime contacts in the Indian Ocean, Delhi: Manohar, pp. 199–224. And Beaujard, Philippe (2019). The Worlds of the Indian Ocean: A Global History.
