We must, however, note that during the period of Sassanian ascendancy in Afghanistan and the Indus valley, some Śaka and Kuṣāṇa chiefs continued to rule as petty feudatories. Thus there was a feudatory Kuṣāṇa family ruling at Kabul; for the wife of the Sassanian emperor Hormuzd II (303-309 A.D.) was a Kuṣāṇa princess belonging to that family. It is quite possible that there may have been other Kuṣāṇa and Śaka feudatories in the Indus valley as well.
