The two great kingdoms of Gandhāra, Pushkalāvatī to the west of the Indus (p. 557) and Takshaçilā to the east, thus passed under the sway of the Çakas during the reign of Maues. The Çaka conquerors, moving up the valley of the Indus from their Indian base in Indo-Scythia (Sind), had come in like a wedge, which for a time separated the remnants of the two Yavana houses. The descendants of Euthydemus, the families of Apollodotus and Menander, still continued to rule in the eastern districts of the Punjab (p. 552), and the descendants of Eucratides in the upper Kābul valley (the province of the Paropanisadae).
