The monograms then are fatal to any attempt to date Maues in the latter part of the first century B.C., like Herzfeld’s 32 B.C. or Jayaswal’s 42 B.C.; and they show, therefore, that the Era of the Taxila copperplate cannot be later than the reign of Mithridates I of Parthia. - [Previous: c28.38](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c28.38) - [Next: c28.40](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c28.40) - [Up: c28](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c28) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c28.39](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c28.39) · Pramāṇa
