Chhu Explained

Chhu (Brahmi script: Chhu) seems to have been a late Kushan Empire ruler, who ruled from 310 to 325 CE.[1] His coinage is very similar to that of his near-contemporary Vasudeva.[2] His rule corresponds to the last days of the Kushan Empire, before the conquest by Kidara.[3]

The rule of Chhu was probably centered on the Punjab and neighbouring areas.[4]
