Apollodotos I is supposed by Lassen to have been a brother of Hēlioklēs, and to have wrested from him the Indian provinces of the kingdom on the death of their father Eukratidēs. The proximity of Apollodotos to the latter in point of time is proved by his coins, which are re-struck with the name of Eukratidēs. They are found in the Upper Kābul Valley, Qāndahār, Roh, and Sindh, and are distinct from, and more widely distributed than, those of Apollodotos Philopatōr, who was probably a later king.
