Bajaur reliquary inscription

The Bajaur reliquary inscription is a Buddhist dedicatory inscription found on a reliquary in Bajaur, Pakistan.

The inscription, recently discovered and published by Salomon in 2005 gives a triple dating which allows to clarify the relationship between several eras: it is dated to the 27th regnal year of Vijayamitra, a king of the Indo-Scythian Apraca, the 73rd years of the Azes era, and the 201st year of the Greeks (Yonanas or Ionians), that is, the Yavana era.

The Azes era being generally dated to 57 BCE, this implies that the Yavana era started in 185 BCE. It also means that the Azes era started 128 years after the beginning of the Yavana era.
