Maski is a town and an archaeological site in the Raichur district of the state of Karnataka, India.

The site came into prominence with the discovery of a minor rock edict of Emperor Ashoka by C. Beadon in 1915.

Lances, ferrules, daggers and arrowheads were found, apart from beads of gold and terracotta objects.
