§ 33. **Rañjubula.** — Important chronological data for the period of these satraps of Mathurā are the following:— (1) the first satrap, *Rañjubula* (**Plate II, 5**) who is undoubtedly the Rājula of the Lion Capital, strikes a coinage directly imitated from that of the Greek prince Strato II (**Plate II, 4**), (2) the Great Satrap Kusulaa Patika of the Lion Capital is almost certainly to be identified with the Satrap Patika, son of Liaka Kusuluka, of the somewhat earlier Taxila copper-plate grant, dated in the 78th year of the Great King Moga (v. supr. § 29, BÜHLER, EI. IV, p. 54, and BH. JRAS. 1894, p. 552). Another class of the coins of Rañjubula, on which the name is written Rājubula in Brāhmī characters (**Plate II, 6**), and the coins of the Satraps of Mathurā generally are related as regards both types and fabric to those of Pañcāla (Śuṅgas) and those of the Hindu princes of Mathurā (v. inf. §§ 52. 53).
