<p>[QUOTE=&quot;THCoins, post: 2004663, member: 57364&quot;]I enjoy the discussion Medoraman ! You state there is no historic evidence the Hepthalite came into Pakistan. However, there is also no firm historic understanding of where the border of the physical and economic influence to the east was actually located. I agree the semantics of how we call each group is important. Unfortunately, that is also a problem in many of the sources, including the contemporary ones. I once was very much opposed to using the generic term &quot;hunnic&quot;. With the difficulties to keep groups apart i must say i use the term more often.</p><p>I still would like to see a factual Gujarati coin that is a clear close copy of the Peroz base-type. I don&#039;t know them from literature, while there are Hepthalite ones. Instead, one of the basic design characteristics of the Gujarati coins is that they all have the narrow heads with long forehead. I think that it is much more likely that stemmed from the Hunnic intermediates. There is ample evidence that this headshape was a cultural archetype in &quot;Hunnic&quot; society which was also expressed in coinage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
