Biography
The exact dating of Jivadaman's reign has been debated. He may have ruled as late as 121 (199 CE).[3]
Jivadaman had no sons, and consequently he was succeeded by his cousin Rudrasena I.[4]
Coins of Jivadaman
With Jivadaman, Western Satrap coins started to be minted with a date, recorded in Brahmi numerals behind the king's head.[5] According to his coins, Jivadaman seems to have ruled two times, once between Saka Era 100 and 103 (178–181 CE), before the rule of Rudrasimha I, and once between Saka Era 119 and 120 (197–198 CE).
