IN the Manusanhita the Licchavis are called the Nicchabis, which, as they were famous for their academies, is the same as the Syrian Nisibis. Arrian and Megasthenes claim that the Nysaioi came to India with Dionysus and it is stated that Alexander believed something similar. As the name Shisunaga appears with pre-Buddhic Licchavi names (ex. Sunakkhatta), Dionysus may have first been the Egyptian Shishank who, 460 years before the Chandragupta (Gupta/Coptic) Maurya (Meru was first called Saba [Sibi]) brought the Sikkim and others to Syria. His name also survives in Elam as Susinak. Herodotus lists the Mispii being aligned with the Murphi ( of Hamurabi). Here the 'rabi' is 'levi' or 'ravi'; the Vedic Rishis (Rishakas) and this also allows the Ethiopian Sheba to represent Shiva.
