Thank you very much for the reference. Of late,I visited Vidisha- and found myself standing in front of the Heliodorus pillar.It' s curious to note how Emperor Antialkidas if Bactrian Greek lineage,became Amtalikitasa in Sanskrit(may be it
is a blend of Brahmi as well,).

To All,
Wishing everybody a Happy New Year,may anybody translate the following excerpt from what Heliodorus wrote in his GarudaDvawaja at Vidisha-

Devadevasa Vasudevasa GarudaDvawaja Ayam,
Karito Heliotdorena bhaga,
vatena diyasa putrena Takshashilakena,
Yonadatena agatena maharajasa,
Amtalikitasa upamta samkasam -rano

Alakendu Das
