Vasishka (ca.247-267 AD), Kanishka III (ca.268 AD) and Vasudeva II (ca.268-300 AD) were Kushan emperors ruling during the period of rapid decline of the Kushan power. Vasudeva II probably only was a local ruler in the area of Taxila, in western Punjab, under the suzerainty of the Gupta Empire.

The Kushan Empire was a syncretic empire, formed by the Yuezhi, in the Bactrian territories in the early 1st century. It spread to encompass much of modern-day territory of Afghanistan, Pakistan and northern India. The Empire went into decline in the 3rd century, but fragments of it lasted until the rise of the Guptas in the late 4th century.
