Thrason

Thrason was an Indo-Greek king, unknown until the 1982 discovery of one of his coins by R.C. Senior. The coin is in a style similar to those of Menander I, has the same type of Athena, and shares one of Menander's mint marks. On the coin, the title of Thrason is "Megas" ("The great"), a title which only Eucratides had dared take before him.

The lack of numismatic remains tend to indicate a small and insignificant reign, although the style suggests a rule circa 90 BCE, in the area of Western Punjab.
