Sadashkana

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sadashkana was, according to the Rabatak inscription, the son of the Kushan emperor Kujula Kadphises. In the inscription, he is not given the title of king, suggesting that he did not rule directly, but that, instead, his own son Vima Kadphises ruled after the death of Kujula Kadphises.

Another inscription, the gold plate inscription of Senavarman, also mentions Sadashkana as the Devaputra (son of god), son of maharaja rayatiraya Kujula Kataphsa (Kujula Kadphises):

"Maharaja rayatiraya Kuyula Kataphsaputra Sadashkano devaputra"
"The son of god Sadashkano, son of the Great king and king of kings, Kujula Kaphises"
