of Hermteus, with the titles dhramathidasa, equivalent to Sikcuov, and 
yavugasa (reading not quite certain), of unknown meaning. 
I take kasasa in Nos. II and III as a genitive proper name, the 
equivalent of the Greek KAA<DIZoY, that is to say, Kadphises in the 
genitive case. The nominative case of the name in the Prakrit should 
therefore apparently be Kasa, = Kadphises. 
The meaning of kozoulo (kozoula) in Greek, equivalent to kujula 
(No. II and ni) and kuyula (No. IV), is not yet ascertained. But it 
seems impossible to doubt that the Greek kozoulo, kozoula, or kozola, 
(No, IV), and the Prakrit kujula (Nos. II and III), and kuyula 
(No. IV) are all different forms of the same word. If Kadphises 
I. (No. Ill) is distinct from Kadaphes (No. IV) that word must be an 
epithet or title rather than a proper name. But I have a strong 
suspicion that Kadphises I. and Kadaphes were one and the same 
person, and that the epithet yavugasa of No. II is only a fuller form 
of the yauasa (=ZAooY) of No. IV. 
The king’s name (in the genitive) is in the Prakrit:— 
Kujula Kasasa — Nos. II and III, 
Kuyula Kaphsasa — No. IV. 
•- la Kaiisa — new coins A and B. 
I propose to treat all these forms, which should be in the nomina¬ 
tive respectively Kasa, Kaphsa, and Kaii (P) as variants of a simple 
name, written in Greek as Kadphises or Kadaphes. Cunningham also 
identified Kadaphes with Kadphises. “ Kozola-Kadaphes I take,” he 
observes, “ to be only a variant spelling of the same king’s name, on 
the issue of a different mint. The head seems to be imitated from the 
coins of Augustus, his contemporary.” ( Num . Ghron. for 1892, p. 46.)
