A copper plate inscription of the later Indo-Greek King Helaute (723-722 BCE), the son of Demetrios has been recently found (in 2002) in Peshawar, Pakistan. It consists of five copper plates and dated in the year 121 (723-722 BCE) of the Azes era (844 BCE). This plate is the hard evidence that later Indo-Greeks started reigning again in Southern Gandhara as vassals of King Gondophares I.
