Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Indian English Шаблон:Infobox royalty Abisares (or Abhisara;[1] in Greek Ἀβισάρης), called Embisarus (Ἐμβίσαρος,) by Diodorus,[2] was a Kashmiri king of Abhira[3] descent whose territory lay in the river Hydaspes beyond the mountains. On his death in 325 BC, Alexander the Great appointed Abisares' son as his successor.[4][5][6][7]

Alexander the Great

Abisares sent embassies of submission to Alexander the Great and Alexander allowed him to retain his kingdom with considerable additions.[8][9]

Onesicritus said that Abisares had two huge snakes and Alexander had a great desire to see them.[10]

Kingdom

Aurel Stein equates the Hazara region, frequently identified as the ancient Urasa with Abhisara.[11][12] However, Stein identifies the kingdom of Abhisara with the tract of the lower and middle hills between the Vitasta (Jhelum) and Chadrabhaga (Chenab) including the state of Rajapuri (Rajauri) in Kasmira.[13][14][15] Old kingdom of Abhisara was basically situated in the Poonch, Rajauri and Nowshera districts of Jammu and Kashmir.[16][17][18]
