________________ 430 POLITICAL HISTORY OF ANCIENT INDIA became powerful, it brought Kābul into subjection. When it grew weak it lost Kābul........... Later, Kābul fell under the rule of Parthia." The real conquest of Kābul by the Parthians could hardly have taken place till after the time of Isidore (last quarter of the first century B.C.) because the writings of that geographer do not include the Kābul valley in the list of the eastern provinces of the Parthian Empire. By A.D. 43-44, however, Parthian rule had extended to this region as we learn from Philostraters. 1 Cf. Thomas JRAS., 1906, 194.
