For the views of Filliozat, see *Manuel des études indiennes*, Vol. I, pp. 212-19. Filliozat prefers the Jaina date 313 B.C. for the accession of Chandragupta, ignoring not only the evidence of the Ceylonese Chronicles but also the fact that the Jaina verses refer to the commencement of Maurya rule in Avanti, not in Magadha or the Indus Valley.

Some distinguish between a Bactrian and an Indo-Bactrian Heliocles (JRNS, 1950, 211-12.) The duplication of the Indian Heliocles requires cogent proof. |
| 422 | | Whitehead in *JAOS*, 1950, 216, throws doubt on the conjecture that Agathokles was the mother and not the *wife* of Strato I. In that case the theory of her marriage with Menander requires more convincing proof than that adduced by Rapson and Tarn. |
