Template:Kushan rulers Vasudeva II (Middle Brahmi script: Error creating thumbnail: File missingError creating thumbnail: File missingError creating thumbnail: File missingError creating thumbnail: File missing Vā-su-de-va) was a Kushan emperor who ruled c. 275–300 CE. He was probably the successor of Kanishka III and may have been succeeded by a king named Shaka Kushan.
Vasudeva II probably only was a local ruler in the area of Taxila, in western Punjab, under the suzerainty of the Gupta Empire.[1]
Vasudeva II was a contemporary of Hormizd I Kushanshah of the Kushano-Sasanians, as he is known to have overstruck a large quantity of the early copper coins of Hormizd I issued south of the Hindu-Kush.[2]
