Another factor in the story of the Paropamisadae is that at some period Maues was certainly ruling and coining in Kapisa, and the monograms show that his immediate predecessor or successor was Telephus (App. 16). As Maues’ conquest of Gandhāra cannot be put much later than *c.* 70 (p. 322), the commencement of his rule in Kapisa is probably to be dated between 70 and 60 B.C. It does not necessarily mean that he was ever there in person—he ruled a vast kingdom; but he had a governor there.
