§ 34. **Other Śaka Satraps.** — The attribution of certain other classes of Scythic coins previous to the period of Kuṣaṇa supremacy is, at present, more doubtful. Some of these are imitated from the coins of the successors of Maues — Azes and Azilises; and, as they bear the title 'satrap', they were very probably struck by satraps of this dynasty. The date of one of these, the Satrap *Zeionises* (Jihonisa, **Plate II, 3**), son of the Satrap Manigula is probably as early as 80 B.C. (C. NChr. 1890, pp. 125. 168, Pl. XV, 1, 4ª). Of a similar date is *Aspavarma*, son of Indravarma, the *strategos* of Azes (id. pp. 126. 169; but v. also inf. § 61), and a ruler, whose name has not yet been discovered and who is only known at present as the son of Vijayamitra (id. pp. 127. 170). Somewhat later are the badly executed coins of *Kharamosta*, son of Artas (id.).
