	Rishikas The Rishikas (also ''Rshika'' and ''Ṛṣika'') was an ancient Kingdom of Central Asia and South Asia, who are mentioned in Hindu and Sanskrit literary texts, including the ''Mahabharata'', the ''Ramayana'', the '' Brhat-Samhita'', the '' Markendeya Purana'' and Patanjali's '' Mahabhashya''. Some historians believe the Rishikas were a part of, or synonymous with, the Kambojas. However, the ''Mahabharata'' not only suggests a distinction, but also adds an internal division – sub-divisions within the Rishikas known as the ''Uttara'' ("northern") and the ''Parama'' ("supreme") . Classical literary texts state that the Rishikas were neighbors of the Parama Kambojas and the Lohas in ''Saka-dvipa'' ("Sakaland") (most likely Transoxiana). According to traditional accounts, during the 2nd century BCE a subgroup of Rishikas migrated to southwestern India and settled there, crossing Afghanistan, Balochistan, Sindhu and Sovira.
