His capital was located 800 or 600 yojanas away (Probably in Armenia or Parthia. One Yojana was roughly equal to 8 km.) from Pataliputra as mentioned in the Rock Edicts of King Ashoka. Other four Yavana kings, Turamaya, Antikini, Maka and Alikasundara were the subordinate kings of Antiyoka in Afghanistan.
