INDIA POST and South Korea in 2019 issued joint stamps of Princess Suriratna and Queen Huh Hwang-ok. The release of the stamp is based on the mythical story of Princess Suriratna from the Indian holy city of Ayodhya, who married a Korean king in 48 AD, some 2000 years ago, and started the Karak dynasty. After marriage, the princess was given the name – Queen Huh Hwang-ok.
An anthropologist named Kim Byung-mo has confirmed the widely held belief that Ayuta was actually Ayodhya, as the two names are phonetically similar. People from the Karak dynasty have also preserved the rocks that are said to have been used by the princess during her sea voyage to Korea to keep her boat stable.
Shown here is the India Post stamp depicting the stones and Princess Suriratna.
