§ 17. The Greek invasion. — The incursions of the Bactrian princes into the Kabul Valley and Northern India must have begun about the beginning of the 2^nd cent. B.C. The war between the Seleucid Antiochus III and the Bactrian Euthydemus ended in an alliance between them (B.C. 206). Probably in the same year, Antiochus crossed the Paropanisus and renewed friendly relations with the king then reigning in the Kabul Valley, Sophagasenus or Subhagasena, who has been identified (LIA II, p. 273) with Jaloka.
