Spalirisos, also spelled Spalirises, (Greek: Σπαλιρίσης Spalirísēs,[1] ϹΠΑΛΙΡΙϹΟΥ Spalirisou (epigraphic); Kharosthi: 𐨭𐨿𐨤𐨫𐨁𐨪𐨁𐨭 Śpa-li-ri-śa, Śpaliriśa[2]) was an Iranian king who ruled Arachosia in the 1st century BCE.
[3] Spalarisos's name is attested on his coins in the Greek form Spalirísēs (Σπαλιρίσης)[1] and in the Kharosthi form Śpaliriśa (𐨭𐨿𐨤𐨫𐨁𐨪𐨁𐨭),[2] which are derived from the Saka name *Spalarīźa, meaning "in command of army".
Senior and Khodadad Rezakhani consider Spalirisos and Spalahores to indeed be Vonones' brothers,[6][3] while others such as K.W.
Dobbins argue that it was an honorific title given to them, whom he considered to be Saka satraps.
[9] Saghi Gazerani has suggested that after the Arsacid re-conquest of Sakastan (sometime between 124–115 BC), which was given as a fiefdom to the Surenid general that led the expedition, the Surenids (who became independent after 88 BC) and Sakas became closely connected, presumably through alliances and intermarriages.
