Answer & ExplanationAnswer: [C]
The name of the contemporary Greek King of Syria mentioned by Ashoka in his edicts is Antiochus II Theos. Ashoka, the Mauryan Emperor, issued a series of rock and pillar edicts during his reign in the 3rd century BCE. In one of these edicts, known as the Edict Minor Rock Edict II, Ashoka mentions the Greek King Antiochus II Theos of Syria as one of the recipients of his message of Dhamma (righteousness). This indicates that Ashoka's influence and reach extended beyond the boundaries of the Mauryan Empire and had interactions with neighboring Hellenistic kingdoms, including the Seleucid Empire ruled by Antiochus II Theos.
