Kushan emperor | |
Reign: | 300–305 CE |
Mahi (Brahmi script: Ma-hi) was a Kushan ruler, whose reign is dated to circa 300–305 CE. He probably succeeded Vasudeva II, and his successor was Shaka.[1] Mahi was among the last Kushan Emperors, before they were overrun by the Kidarites.[2]
Mahi, like the last few Kushan rulers, ruled in Gandhara in the area of Taxila, probably under the suzerainty of Gupta Empire rulers, particularly Samudragupta.[2] Their coinage reflected the great Kushan tradition, but the value had been much reduced.[2]
