Agathocles the Just (Greek: Ἀγαθοκλῆς ὁ Δίκαιος) was a Greco-Bactrian/Indo-Greek king, who reigned between around 190 and 180 BC. He was a son of Demetrius and Sundari, Princess of Maurya. He was one of his fathers sub-kings in charge of the Paropamisade between Bactria and Indus-Ganges plains. In that case, he was a grandson of Euthydemus, and great-grandson of Diodotus the Great whom he qualified on his coins as Βασιλεὺς Θεός, Basileus Theos (Greek for "God-King").
