Sanabares

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coin of Sanabares, minted in Sakastan.

Sanabares (Greek: ϹΑΝΑΒΑΡΟΥ Sanabarou; 135-160 CE)[1] was an Indo-Parthian king.[1] He was the last Indo-Parthian king to rule in both Sakastan and south Arachosia,[1] as the Kushans under Wima Kadphises made inroads into Indo-Parthian territory.[1]

A Sanabares II seems to have ruled in Sakastan from 160 to 230 CE.[1]
