Английская Википедия:Alkhis
Шаблон:Location map+ Alkhis was a ruler of the area of Zabul, with its capital at Gazan (Ghazni) in Afghanistan in the early decades of the 8th century CE.[3] He was the son of Khuras.[3] He expanded his territory as far north of the region of Band-e Amir, west of Bamiyan.[3] Although not listed in contemporary Chinese sources, Alkhis may have been a member of the Zunbil ruler of Zabulistan, and was probably of the same ethnicity as the nearby Turk Shahis ruling in Kabul at that time.[4]
Alkhis is known to have sent a message to the Tang dynasty emperor in 724 CE.[3] Before 726 CE, he made the territory of Zabul independent from the kingdom of Jibin-Kabul ruled by the Turk Shahis.[3]
Alkhis is considered as the patron of the second period of florescence of the Buddhist sanctuary of Tapa Sardar, characterized in this period by the creation of hybrid Sinicized-Indian Buddhist art.[3]
The Bactrian inscription of the stupa at Tang-i Safedak (Шаблон:Coord), dated to around 715/716 CE or 710/724 CE, mentions the dedication of a stupa by Alkhis:[5]
