There has long been speculation about trade between India and the Roman Empire (see threads below). A statuette of Buddha, possibly associated with an Indian trader, has been found in the city of Berenike (Berenice Troglodytica), an Ancient Egyptian seaport on the western shore of the Red Sea (see map below). (Two Indian coins minted in the 2nd century AD were found at the site) https://www.heritagedaily.com/2023/04/statue-depicting-buddha-found-in-ancient-egyptian-city/147109 Site of Berenike, Egypt on Red Sea
