岡多法勒斯一世過世之後，他的王國開始分裂。「岡多法勒斯」（或是名字，或是頭銜）由沙佩東尼斯（英語：Sarpedones）（或許是岡多法勒斯之子）繼承，稱為岡多法勒斯二世。雖然沙佩東尼斯自稱是主要統治者，但他的政權並不穩固，他曾在信德、旁遮普東部、和阿富汗南部的阿拉霍西亞零星的鑄造過錢幣。最重要的繼任者應該是貢多法列斯的侄子阿巴達哥希斯一世（英語：Abdagases I），他統治的領土包括旁遮普，可能還包括根據地錫斯坦。沙佩東尼斯的統治時間不長，沙佩東尼斯似乎由奧爾塔涅斯（英語：Orthagnes）接替，後者成為岡多法勒斯三世。到公元20年後，由一位名為薩希斯（英語：Sases）（也稱為岡多法勒斯四世薩希斯）的國王統治。根據《印度-帕提亞王朝錢幣及歷史（Indo-Scythian coins and history）》一書的作者Robert C. Senior的說法，這位薩希斯就是塔克特依巴依僧院銘文中所提到的岡多法勒斯。[8]
一些古代著作提及這個地區有印度-帕提亞人的存在，例如使徒多馬的故事，他被聘為木匠，到印度國王「古德納法爾（Gudnaphar）」（被認為就是岡多法勒斯）的宮中工作。《多馬行傳（英語：Acts of Thomas）》第17章描述多馬前往印度北部拜見古德納法爾國王；第2章和第3章描述多馬經過海路前往印度，從而推論他是在公元52年抵達印度的西岸。
Robert C. Senior指出，[10]這位古德納法爾國王通常被認為是第一任的岡多法勒斯，而這位岡多法勒斯的存在是在基督教出現之後，而根據Senior的研究表顯示歷史上第一位岡多法勒斯在公元1年之前即已存在。因之多馬可能拜見的是另一位擁有相同名諱的國王。
The chronology of the Gondopharid kings has long been uncertain, predominantly based on coins. This reconstruction is based on "Indo-Scythian Coins and History IV" by Robert Senior, CNG 2006, as the four volumes of Senior's work provide an almost complete catalogue of the coinage of the period. Senior's chronology is based on the existence of only one king Azes, a theory that was vindicated when it was shown that a coin of the so-called Azes II was overstruck with a type attributed to Azes I (see Senior, "The final nail in the coffin of Azes II", Journal of the Oriental Numismatic Society 197, 2008).
A votive inscription of the 26th year of Guduvhara or Gondophares, is reported to have been found on a stone at Takht-i-Bahi, northeast of Peshawar with a date in the year 103 of an unspecified era reckoning. This era is likely to have been the Malva or Vikrama era, founded in 57 BCE, this would give a date of 20 CE for this king's ascension (see Hindu calendar). The stone was formerly in the museum at Lahore. The point is especially important for those Christians who consider that a germ of history is embedded in the Acts of Thomas.
"I have already described the way in which the city is walled, but they say that it was divided up into narrow streets in the same irregular manner as in Athens, and that the houses were built in such a way that if you look at them from outside they had only one story, while if you went into one of them, you at once found subterranean chambers extending as far below the level of the earth as did the chambers above." (Life of Apollonius Tyana, II 23) （頁面存檔備份，存於互聯網檔案館）
"Parthians, from about the 1st century AD, seem to have preferred to show off their carefully tonsured hair, usually only wearing a fillet of thick ribbon; before then, the Scythian cap or bashlyk was worn more frequently". In "Parthians and Sassanid Parthians" Peter Willcox ISBN0-85045-688-6, p12
Pierfrancesco Gallieri, in "Crossroads of Asia": "The parallels are so striking that it is not excluded that the objects discovered in Taxila and dated to between the 1st century BCE and the 1st century CE were in reality produced earlier, maybe by artisans who had followed the Greeks kings during their retreat from Bactria to India" p211 (in French in the original)
"Let us remind that in Sirkap, stone palettes were found at all excavated levels. On the contrary, neither Bhir-Mound, the Maurya city preceding Sirkap on the Taxila site, nor Sirsukh, the Kushan city succeeding her, did deliver any stone palettes during their excavations", in "Les palettes du Gandhara", p89. "The terminal point after which such palettes are not manufactured anymore is probably located during the Kushan period. In effect, neither Mathura nor Taxila (although the Sirsukh had only been little excavated), nor Begram, nor Surkh Kotal, neither the great Kushan archaeological sites of Soviet Central Asia or Afghanistan have yielded such objects. Only four palettes have been found in Kushan-period archaeological sites. They come from secondary sites, such as Garav Kala and Ajvadz in Soviet Tajikistan and Jhukar, in the Indus Valley, and Dalverzin Tepe. They are rather roughly made." In "Les Palettes du Gandhara", Henri-Paul Francfort, p91. (in French in the original)
