The patterns of imperial imagery elaborated by the Arsacids became the reference and were adopted by many of the successive dynasties, starting with the Kushan themselves. Chorasmia was exposed to such influences, and the coin series of its first kings show the interplay between local features and elements coming from both Arsacid Parthia and the Kushan Empire.

The stele was found in very poor condition on the summit terrace of the site, at the north end of the court front. At the opposite end were found parts of the three famous statues of Kushan kings now in the Kabul Museum. The first part of the article presents some additions to the readings of the stele proposed in the past. In the light of a re-examination of the published data, the hypothesis is put forward that the locations of the stele and the statues were secondary, and that the latter were originally located elsewhere on the top terrace of the sanctuary. The second part of the article proposes, on the basis of the iconographic details, a hypothesis on the identification of the sovereigns represented in the stele and statues and a new reconstruction of the events related to both the foundation and the reconstruction and final phases of the great sanctuary.
