Following the discovery of the galactic transient MAXI J1409-619 (ATel #2959) and the accurate localization by Swift/XRT (ATel #2962), we performed a search for this transient in the archival data from BeppoSAX and INTEGRAL.
We found that the Swift/XRT source position was within the field of view of the BeppoSAX/MECS instrument for 19 ks on 2000 January 29. Two sources are clearly detected in the MECS field of view, one is consistent with the Swift/XRT position: it is detected at ~8 sigma level (2-10 keV) and has coordinates RA(J2000) = 14h 08m 00.6s and Dec(J2000) = -61d 58m 19.9s (45 arcsec uncertainty).
