1. Chandragupta Maurya, the first Mauryan emperor reigning 321—297 BCE.
   • c. 350 CE, Marcus Iunianus Iustinus, Epitoma Historiarum Philippicarum Pompeii Trogi XV.IV.13:

     Auctor libertatis Sandrocottus fuerat, sed titulum libertatis post victoriam in servitutem verterat; siquidem occupato regno populum, quem ab externa dominatione vindicaverat, ipse servitio premebat.

     The author of this liberation was Sandrocottus, who afterwards however, turned their semblance of liberty into slavery; for, making himself king, he oppressed the people whom he had delivered from a foreign power, with a cruel tyranny.^[1]
