It was never ruled from India; the notice is one of a class in Stephanus, like ‘Gerrha, a city of the Chaldeans’ or ‘Barygaza, the emporium of Gedrosia’ (p. 260), which refer to close trading connections; it shows that at some time Carmania (the Amanis country) was neither Seleucid nor Parthian (i.e. was independent) and was an emporium for the Indian trade, as I have worked out. - [Previous: c24.25](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c24.25) - [Next: c24.27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c24.27) - [Up: c24](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c24) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c24.26](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c24.26) · Pramāṇa
