Vijayamitra

Vijayamitra was an Apracharaja who ruled in Gandhara, with his capital in Bajaur.

He succeeded the previous Apracharaja, Visnuvarma, in 3 BCE with a reign lasting til 32 CE.

Vijayamitra is mentioned in a recently discovered inscription in Kharoshthi on a Buddhist reliquary (the "Rukhana reliquary",[1] published by Salomon in 2005), which gives a relationship between several eras of the period, and especially gives confirmation of a Yavana era in relation to the Azes era: This dedication indicates that King Vijayamitra was a follower of Buddhism.

Vijamitra also made a second inscription in the Shinkot casket, which had initially been dedicated under the reign of Indo-Greek king Menander I.
