Burmızra Kuşänşäh
Burmızra or Buddämiträ (𑀩𑀼𑀤𑁆𑀥𑀫𑀺𑀢𑁆𑀭𑀸) was a Xuna ruler who presumably held the title of Kuşänşäh in the final days of the Kuşän state, thereafter, reorganized as Avarşahr.
Etymology
Buddhä comes from Sanskrit बुद्ध "enlightened one." Miträ comes from Sanskrit मि॒त्र "friend." Buddämiträ may have been pronounced as *burmɨzrɑ given that buddhä was loaned into Tägäräk languages as *bur, while miträ, which also means "sun" in Sanskrit, was pronounced as *mɨzrɑ in the language of the Varxuna.
