You've heard of Menander, haven't
you? No? Along with Apollodotos I he was a sub-king under Eukratides,
who had raised a successful revolt against Antimachos. Menander was
in charge of northeastern Afghanistan and part of the Pakistani Northwest
Frontier. His region had silver mines, which he made extensive use
of, making his drachms the most common in the Indo-Greek series.
But that's not why he's famous. He was a great patron of Buddhism,
enough so that he shows up with a long student-patron part in the Buddhist
sacred texts.
By the way, Pushkalavati is
close enough to Peshawar that I allow myself to consider them the same
place, though the more punctilious will hasten to remind that the old ruins
are some miles away. Taxila is about 50 miles away. Kapisa
is basically Kabul. Gandhara is the region of which the city of Qandahar
is the capital. Panjshir in northern Afghanistan is where the silver
came from. Ahmad Shah Masoud, the point man opposing the Taliban,
whose assassination presaged 9/11, was in Panjshir.
