About A. D. 20 Azes II is supposed to have been succeeded by Gondopharēs, who seems to have conquered Sind and Arachosia, making himself master of a wide dominion free from Parthian control. When he died, about A. D. 48, his kingdom was divided, the Western Panjāb falling to the share of his brother’s son Abdagases, while Arachosia and Sind passed under the rule of Orthagnes, who was followed by Pakorēs. No successor of Abdagases is known. About the middle of the first century the Panjāb was annexed by the Kushān king, Kujula-Kara-Kadphises (Kadphises I).
