In the autumn of 327 BCE, the forces of Alexander the Great (356 BCE 323 BCE) reached Pushkalavati (near Charsadda), approximately 60 km northwest of Shaidu. After the death of Alexander, the area about Shaidu came under the influence of several kingdoms including the Maurya Empire (322 BCE 180 BCE), and the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom (256 BCE 125 BCE).
