	Sapadbizes Information
		It is likely that Sapadbizes and these other rulers were descendants of tribes who had invade Bactria and imitated the coins of the last Greco-Bactrian kings.
		Though it is clear from the coins and the evidence of Chinese chroniclers that at this time Sapadbizes was an ally or dependent of Parthia.
		Nothing is known of the succession after Sapadbizes, but scholars surmise that his kingdom was conquered by Kujula Kadphises, during the latter's war with Parthia, and absorbed into the Kushan Empire, probably about 30.

	The goddess Nana on coins of the Yu-chi, Kushans and Guptas
		On the reverse of Sapadbizes' coins there is an image of a lion representing the Mesopotamian goddess Nana.
		This is an example of the way in which the engraver is freely borrowing and reinterpreting rather than simply imitating earlier coinage (see also the letterforms used on the coins).
		The nature of the symbol on Sapadbizes coins is still unclear but it may be a symbol of Nana.

	The COININDIA Coin Galleries: Yueh-Chi: Sapalbizes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		However, as a close examination of the coins shows, the name should be Sapalbizes, not Sapadbizes.
		A discussion on the southasia-coins eGroup confirmed that all coins of this ruler do indeed read "Sapalbizes," except that reportedly there is one coin at the British Museum that carries a Δ.
		It is interesting to note that the name Sapalbizes is more in keeping with a line of Scythian names that are known from the coins: Spalirises, Spalagadames and Spalahores.
