Kidara shifted her gaze to a spider scuttling across the floor.
Kidara handed the ring to her older brother and watched him look it over.

One of the YueChi tribes left in Bactria while the rest of the YueChi invaded india as the Kushans came to rule the Xiyon (Chionites) and were known as KiToLo (Kidara).
The Kidarites themselves were displaced by the expansion of yet another of their families left in Bactria, the YepTal (Hephthal) who came to rule a union of Alchoni and Hua (later known in the west as Avars).
Some have argued for the Kidara's relationship to the Elbruz proto-Khazars displaced by the arrival of the Hephthalites in Afghanistan.

 Iranica.com - KIDARITES
The name of Kidara, the founder of the dynasty, is attested in Chinese transcription as Jiduoluo (in the Weishu), in Sanskrit as Kidara or Kid@ara (on coin legends in Br@ahm^ script; the length of the second syllable is uncertain), and in Sogdian as ky’r (on coin legends).
In this perspective Kidara would have emerged in Tukharist@an in the 420's or 430's and then crossed to Gandh@ara via its northern valleys.
Kidara had been driven away by the Xiongnu and fled westwards, and later made his son assume the defensive" (transl.

The first bronze lot which was discovered was not a cohesive hoard, but rather individual finds on the surface of the cave, mostly left over from earlier excavations.

Subsequently, around 380 C.E., a certain Kidara emerges in K¨ora@sa@n with the Sasanian title of Kuæa@næa@h "King over the Kushans," his name appearing in Greco-Bactrian script on Kushano-Sasanian type gold coins as Kidaro.
Later drachms, showing a younger portrait, give the name Kidara in Brahmi script, suggesting a successor of the same name.
Thus the dominant confederacy of Hunnish tribes became known as Kidarites, evidently designating a political, rather than an ethnic, grouping.

 Kidarites - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The southern or "Red" Kidarite vassals to the Kushans in NWFP, became better known as Red Huns from 360 AD after Kidara II led a Bactrian portion of Xionites to overthrow the Kushans in India.
Kidara's southern Xionites were the first "Hunas" to bother India.
Indian records note that the Hūna had established themselves in Afghanistan and NWFP in present day Pakistan by the first half of the fifth century, and the Gupta emperor Skandagupta had repelled a Hūna invasion in 455.

 Frye. Heritage of Persia
The joining of the word 'Hun' to the Kidarites by Priskos is probably an example of the use of the general fifth-century term for an earlier history and no proof that the Kidarites were Altaic-speaking people.
Presumably Kidara was the name of a ruler since the name appears on coins, but there is no evidence that he led a new Central Asian horde to conquer the Kushan realm.
Several attempts to date a ruler Kidara have not been convincing and we may only hazard a guess that such a reign was in the fourth century.

The Sassanian rule as very short, however, and power soon passed to the Kidara Kushana, an offshoot of the dispossessed Kushan rulers.
Though not as magnificent as the Kushan rulers of the past, the Kidara Kushana founded many Buddhist monasteries and reinvigorated Taxila with wealth and magnificence.
Taxila's downfall came in the 5th century A.D. when the White Hun hordes sacked the area, destroying monasteries and looting the city's treasures.

This region, one of the least accessible on Earth, features a crazy-quilt of cultures, as various language groups, ethnic tribes, and religious persuasions have carved out homelands in the isolated vales.

 Kidarites
Also referred to as the Chionites (from the Middle Persian word xiyon, 'Hun'), a Hunnic tribe that crashed into the eastern frontiers of Iran and the northern ones of the Kushans circa 320 A.D. A people different from the Hephthalites, the Chionites were called 'Red' Huns; the Hephthalites 'White'.
Shortly after 340 (?) A.D., the enigmatic leader Kidara pushed the Kushans out of northern Pakistan and gave his name to this short-lived dynasty.
At the end of the 4th century, a new wave of Hunnic tribes (Alchon Huns (?)) invaded Bactria, pushing the Kidarites into Gandhara.

 Review: Studies In Silk Road Coins And Culture
For example at the start of the article he writes 'Lukonin made the mistake of regarding the co-called Kushans mentioned in the historical records of Ammianus Marcellinus and Faustus Buzand, as the Great Kushans.
However, the "kushans" recorded in these literary sources are not the Great Kushans but the Kidara Kushans or Chionites.
If Tanabe wants to dismiss Lukonin then a simple, Lukonin is wrong, would have done.
