Who is Kanishka III?
Kanishka III was a Kushan emperor who reigned for a short period around the year 268 CE. He is believed to have succeeded Vasishka and was succeeded by Vasudeva II.
In an inscription dated to the "Year 41" and discovered on the borders of the river Ara in Punjab, he qualifies himself as a Kaisara, suggesting some awareness of the Roman Empire, and names himself as the son of Vashishka.
