Spalagadames

Spalagadames was an Indo-Scythian ruler, son of Spalahores, himself brother of king Vonones. He ruled in areas of the North-western South Asia between around 50 BCE.

Spalagadames was mentioned on coins in the name of king Vonones, as the son of Spalahores, and later on coin of Spalirises as king, where he is again introduced as the son of Spalahores.

No coins of him as king are known, so he must have been a subordinate local ruler, such as a satrap.
