'''Peucolaus Soter Dikaios''' ([[Greek language|Greek]]: {{lang|grc|Πευκόλαος ὁ Σωτήρ, ὁ Δίκαιος}}; [[epithet]]s mean respectively, "the Saviour", "the Just") was an [[Indo-Greek]] king who ruled in the area of [[Gandhara]] c. 90 BCE. His reign was probably short and insignificant, since he left only a few coins, but the relations of the latter Indo-Greek kings remain largely obscure.
